The process killed has been either httpd or cronolog so far. For now,
I have upgraded to FC4's 2.6.16-1_1069 and added some swap, where
previously there was none.
Is there a way to:
- confirm that it is a userspace and not a kernel issue?
- track down the application that is leaking memory?
This seems a bit off-topic for LKML, because you should *always* check
user-space for memory leaks before blaming the kernel. A few things that
can help you with your questions:
- the 'ps' utility, to see who eats the memory
- valgrind - an excellent tool for tracking down memory leaks (and other
bugs, too). Comes with Fedora, but check the Web for a newer version.

Leo.
Thanks for the help,
Rahul
