[Orca-users] Re: Out of memory error

[prasadjlv at yahoo.com]

Blair,

I have been running Orca0.27b2 continuosly for about 2 weeks on a Sun
E450 with 2 GB of RAM and 1 GB of swap. Also, Orca is monitoring only
this machine.

Orca stops running after it runs out of memory and I end up manually
restarting it. Why does it need that much memory?

Oh! one other thing, Orca is running on Solaris 2.5.1.
