Re: [knot-dns-users] Excessive memory usage - knot 2.6.5

Just some comments from a user: It is hard to guess if the consumed memory is something to care or not. I do not know if all the virtual memory may be used and some time may cause problems. If my monitoring tells me "100 % memory used" I am concerned, as I do not know if this is a real problem or just some irrelevant buffers. Also I do not know how the name server will behave when running out of memory (crash, serving old data, serving broken data, ...). Hence, I have to add more memory or choose a different name server. I have a server with limited memory. NSD was running out of memory. So I tried Knot. Knot consumed similar memory (from a non-developer view, not capably of analyzing virtual vs resistent vs ... memory). So, I switched the Bind and was happy because my monitoring now tells me "50% memory used" - and I am not worried about memory anymore. Sometimes I have time to investigate and analyze problems, but most of the time I do not have time for debugging and just need a solution for my problem, hence I still use Bind on this server.
