just looked at my ASG to check memory and swap usage [:D]
What I see doesn't please me...


As you can see, the process has just started to build up again at 00:20 am which looks like there is a link to the generation of the daily executive report.
Here is the top output where you can see that a process called "report_render.p" seems to be resposible for the issue.

Additionally I had a restart of the POP3 proxy this morning, but I would sort this out as a subsequent error to the memory leak:
2011:08:22-07:01:36 astaro1 pop3proxy[5721]: Database error: server closed the connection unexpectedly
2011:08:22-07:02:00 astaro1 pop3proxy[22193]: Master started
Do you need any additional information?
