The log when beagled leaked memory (116.79 KB, text/plain)

Description alejandro vera 2006-03-22 19:40:31 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
I installed beagle in debian sid. 0.2.3

I deleted my old indexes and started beagled from fresh instalation

Many hours later i created a text file and when i saved it my HD began to work
like crazy and i lost responsivity of my box. I had to ssh from other notebook
to mine and find that beagle was using 1080 Mb of virtual memory. i managed to
kill the process "beagled" and all become normal again

I'll attach the log in the next message. it is full of warnings and other kind
of error.

If someone is interested in this bug (please!!!) then it could be useful to look
the logs i attached to bug 335272 

Steps to reproduce:
1. let beagle run many hours
2. create and save a text document with some words

I now it not fill fail always.. it is what I did :(

Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

The log when beagled leaked memory

This is the log ... it has lots of errors..

the more strange error is that are a lot of references to /home/jose or /home/something in the stack trace... i asume that are from the packager from debian...
Comment 2 Debajyoti Bera 2006-03-22 20:09:59 UTC 
There is another bug of similar kind. Please add further comments there. Helps in seeing all comments at the same place.

One thing I noticed in the log files of these bugs is some exception occuring down the line, which basically stalls the indexing process. However as crawling continues, the to_index queue keeps getting longer and longer. That might be one reason for the memory blowouts.

/home/jose is just the packager. Can you try building the source yourself ? There are a lot of unusual errors. Some even strange one! Can you also delete (probably a file) /usr/lib/beagle/Backends ?
