Potential memory leak

Distribution: Gentoo

Description

During rebuilding of system (sort of - enabling doc flag) paludis takes nearly 600 MiB of memory and 1.5 GiB of virtual memory. The memory load of system is about 2 GiB above normal.

Options: paludis -i world --log-level warning --dl-reinstall if-use-changed --dl-reinstall-scm weekly --continue-on-failure if-independent --resume-command-template /root/paludis-resume

PS. I have an hook enabled which collects the einfo etc. output. It may be in it as well.

Ok, what specifically makes you think it's Paludis that's using all the RAM? Are you sure it's not a child process?

Well. The readings from htop and gnome system monitor (so indirectly /proc pseudofilesystem). As far as I understend those tools child memory is not included.
