Thread: Memory leaks?

Memory leaks?

From
"Maurice Gittens"
Date:
Ok, I have an application which uses posgresql.

While testing the system (inserting many records into
a database (with large objects) the system ran out of memory
(the system has 64M RAM + 128M SWAP). Sorting the processes
according to memory usage showed me a postgres process with 160M of
memory (+-80%) used.

Any tips for helping me find out what's going on here? How do you guys
check for leaks?

Thanks
  Maurice

Version ?
OS ?
INSERTs are inside BEGIN/END ? Was -DTBL_FREE_CMD_MEMORY used if YES and
version is < 6.3 ?
