I’m using rt 3.4.5 on gentoo, and I’ve tried both apache 1 and apache 2
through mod_perl and mod_fastcgi, and every time I click a link or button in
rt, it uses about 2 gigs of ram and takes about a minute of swapping to
process the click. It’s configured to use mysql.
During this time, no strange errors are dumped, and various stracing doesn’t
show anything suspicious. I would provide more information than this, but
I’m running out of places to look. Has anyone come across this?
Thanks,
Giles

That’s very strange. What processes specifically use two gigs of ram?
What do top and mytop (mytop - a top clone for MySQL) say?
I had the same problem on my Gentoo machine. It was a newly installed
system with a clean database, its only roll was RT .
Apache 2.0.55
Perl 5.8.7
mod_perl 2.0.1-r2
MySQL 5.0.18
I tried both perl and fastcgi, only with apache2, but found the same
thing via both. Due to time constraints I had to move to another distro
to get it up and running ASAP but if a cause is found I would love to
migrate it back to my Gentoo server.

It’s quite difficult to get this output, due to the fact that one can’t move
the mouse pointer at the time (!!), but I imanged to discover that when
running with mod_perl, the process hogging the memory was apache.
It’s running on my desktop machine (I installed it with the intention of
developing scrips), but the only processes running are the waiting browser,
and the occasional mp3 player (which would start skipping at this point).

Anyone on this list got it to work on gentoo then?

Are you able to try with the worker MPM and see if that solves it?

Yes, we have no problems with 3.4.5 on a Gentoo server
Perl 5.8.7
MySQL 5.0.16
mod_perl 2.0.1-r2
mod_fastcgi 2.4.2-r1
Using FastCGI on Apache2
Installed mostly according to the Gentoo guide in the wiki, with some
tweaking when the app didn’t work at first…

Hmm… me too. I’m in the process of an “emerge --deep --update world”, to see
if that fixes it… 140 packages to go :-/
Thing is, other then the fact that it takes 5 minutes to do anything, rt is
working. I’m wondering if there’s some sort of allocation loop or something
in a stray perl module somewhere.

From time to time run RT on Gentoo with stock perl+mp2 for tests. Can
recommend to don’t use perl compiled with threads support and apache
with threaded MPM.On 2/15/06, Giles Constant giles.constant@wtg.cw.com wrote:
