[Ocfs2-users] Question regarding old memory leak

[Markus Meyer]

Hi all,

I just started with OCFS2 and set up a 2-node cluster where one node is 
writing and both read from the clustered volume. Currently I'm moving 
data to the volume via tar and since I started this more and more memory 
is used until nothing is left and the box reboots. This takes about two 
to three days.

I use the OCFS2 version provided with Debian Etch and I'm not sure if 
the memory leak bug mentioned in OCFS2's bugzilla(bug #871) is already 
fixed in those packages.

Here the versions:
# modinfo ocfs2

Thx and Regards,
