Re^3: Debian Lenny Out of Memory errors.

Would you care to answer my other questions as well?

So far I only see that it needs more memory than it has, but without seeing any numbers, it might use an entirely reasonable amount of memory, and your limits are just too strict. (Note the ulimit's -d is not the only possible memory restriction).

Try running it without a memory limit, and see how much it uses at most.

Ok, I tried setting ulimit to unlimited on the stack size and virtual mem as well as data and it appears to work. I guess perl 5.10 takes a lot more memory?	[reply]

Hmm, using Debian. I dunno if this is a Debian issue since: i got Padre from cpan with Perl 5.10 (iirc) and Kernel 2.6.26 (Lenny too, with some unstable packages) I got 4GB physical mem (limited to 3.x GB) on my notebook (32-Bit-Kernel) is it 64Bit or 32-Bit? dont know if this is relevant... Your Kernel and Perl is from Debian Sources? hth MH	[reply]
