I gathered that. However in login.conf:
daemon:\
:ignorenologin:\
:datasize=infinity:\
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
:maxproc=infinity:\
:openfiles-cur=128:\
:stacksize-cur=8M:\
:localcipher=blowfish,8:\
:tc=default:
Also ps(1) output seems to confirm that named process limit is the
entire memory of the machine.
root@openbsd: /var/named/tmp # ps -ax -v | head
PID STAT TIME SL RE PAGEIN VSZ RSS LIM TSIZ %CPU %MEM COMMAND
31077 S 277:43.57 0 127 15 608272 610340 8145988 1292 10.6 7.3
/usr/sbin/named
In any case, perhaps the load I give is not enough to have BIND expand
its memory usage. In Linux however, under the same load the process size
increases pretty well :)
[root@linux data]# ps auxww | grep named
named 19542 7.2 61.5 5184060 4958428 ? Ssl Apr18 243:54
/usr/sbin/named -u named -t /var/named/chroot
Thanks,
