Hi,
I just got a bunch of warnings from my ASL 4.009 box:
Too much memory for a single process:
297108 kb for /usr/local/bin/fwlogwatch -S -f /var/log/kernel-20030707.gz -P n -b -m 5 -t -e -n -N -p
root 26330 97.1 57.3 297108 296048 ? RN 00:08 776:38 /usr/local/bin/fwlogwatch -S -f /var/log/kernel-20030707.gz -P n -b -m 5 -t -e -n -N -p
This is the output from top:

After killing the process it got immediately restarted by fwlw.pl and also began to eat lots of memory, so I killed the damn parent.
What does this process try to do besides eating up my cpu and my memory? It did this for hours (the process was started at 0:05, I killed it at 14:25!).
