Comment(by ln5):
This particular machine is not suitable for debugging I'm afraid.
I'm going to start looking at a couple of other relays; one running as
an authority in a test network, i.e. without any traffic, and one busy
exit relay, to see if I can reproduce it in another environment and
maybe find out more about what triggers it.
Regarding version, 0.2.4.5-alpha-dev (git-03b32161bc377668) didn't
crash when running for about two weeks (from Oct 29 to Nov 13). The
crashing 0.2.4.6-alpha (git-b13c6becc892d971) died in under 6
days. Prior to that, 0.2.4.3-alpha-dev (git-dc014c97472e3adf) ran for
10 days without crashing, FWIW. Not sure what configuration might've
changed between the restarts though, so it's hard to draw any firm
conclusions from this I'm afraid.
Current status for maatuska is 378/312 VSZ/RSS. This means a growth of
about a third of the rate earlier reported. I'm not convinced that the
bug is in 0.2.4.6-alpha-dev (git-ea893a3c30d0e2ed) but keeping the
ticket open for a couple of days more.
