Zope process keeps consuming memory...
Hi, I have a Zope process that is currently using rather a large amount of memory. Here's a dump of the relevant line from 'top'; load averages: 0.01, 0.39, 0.57 13:14:44 273 processes: 269 sleeping, 3 zombie, 1 on cpu CPU states: 97.0% idle, 0.2% user, 0.4% kernel, 2.4% iowait, 0.0% swap Memory: 512M real, 38M free, 610M swap in use, 686M swap free PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME CPU COMMAND 14190 nnle 9 33 0 193M 191M sleep 23:51 0.00% python This is from a database that is 9 Megs in size. Basically, does Zope have a memory leak or something that can cause this to happen? What can I do to find out if this is the case? What can I do about it? Zope 2.1.3, source distribution under Solaris 5.6 any thoughts are appreciated, tone. ------ Dr Tony McDonald, FMCC, Networked Learning Environments Project http://nle.ncl.ac.uk/ The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 222 5888 Fingerprint: 3450 876D FA41 B926 D3DD F8C3 F2D0 C3B9 8B38 18A2
I've noticed similar behavior after installing WorldPilot. Things worked just fine for a while,¨ but then none of the mailboxes were available; and one of the zope processes started to grow wildly. / Svante Kleist, NEMESIS systemDesign - Stockholm -- Tony McDonald <tony.mcdonald@ncl.ac.uk> wrote: : Hi, : I have a Zope process that is currently using rather a large amount of : memory. : : Here's a dump of the relevant line from 'top'; : : load averages: 0.01, 0.39, 0.57 : 13:14:44 : 273 processes: 269 sleeping, 3 zombie, 1 on cpu : CPU states: 97.0% idle, 0.2% user, 0.4% kernel, 2.4% iowait, 0.0% swap : Memory: 512M real, 38M free, 610M swap in use, 686M swap free : : PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME CPU COMMAND : 14190 nnle 9 33 0 193M 191M sleep 23:51 0.00% python : : This is from a database that is 9 Megs in size. : : Basically, does Zope have a memory leak or something that can cause : this to happen? : What can I do to find out if this is the case? : What can I do about it? : : Zope 2.1.3, source distribution under Solaris 5.6 : : any thoughts are appreciated, : tone. : ------ : Dr Tony McDonald, FMCC, Networked Learning Environments Project : http://nle.ncl.ac.uk/ : The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 222 5888 : Fingerprint: 3450 876D FA41 B926 D3DD F8C3 F2D0 C3B9 8B38 18A2 : : _______________________________________________ : Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org : http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope : ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** : (Related lists - : http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce : http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) :

Thanks for the info Svante, at least it's not just me. Here's what's happening at the moment load averages: 0.27, 0.22, 0.29 12:17:35 278 processes: 273 sleeping, 3 zombie, 2 on cpu CPU states: 87.4% idle, 10.7% user, 1.1% kernel, 0.8% iowait, 0.0% swap Memory: 512M real, 11M free, 686M swap in use, 610M swap free PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME CPU COMMAND 14190 nnle 9 5 0 210M 142M cpu/1 81:08 2.62% python I can bring the usage way down by restarting the process, but that's not a solution for the long term is it? So, if anyone knows a way I can tell what it is that's using this memory, (deeply recursive structures, URLs of the form http://host/medfac/medfac/ ... /medfac/indxe_html etc) I'd really like to know; cheers tone.
