New issue 184 by N.sherl...@gmail.com: S3FS 1.40 using 3.6GB of memory!
http://code.google.com/p/s3fs/issues/detail?id=184
Detailed description of observed behavior:
After mlocate ran on our mounted s3fs bucket with between 500,000 and 1
million files (silly me, hadn't disabled it), s3fs process is suddenly
consuming 3.6GB of memory, and has shown no signs of giving any of it back.
I tried unmounting and remounting - no joy.
What steps will reproduce the problem - please be very specific and
detailed. (if the developers cannot reproduce the issue, then it is
unlikely a fix will be found)?
Allow mlocate to index a mounted bucket that contains many files.

s3fs has actually given back the memory now - after having held on to it
for 6 hours. I guess the umount/mount cleared it?

unmount/mount should definitely clear any memory. Let us know if you're
still seeing this is 1.61

Hi,
I have the same problem )-:..
In my case s3fs allocates 7GB RAM of memory after a while.
Unmount/mount clears the memory for a while and than it happens again.
I've upgraded to 1.61 and it still happans.
I'm using fuse 2.8.4 on a CentOS 5.5 server..
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

another known fix instead umount/mount?
Thanks in advance!
