Hmm, this *sounds* like you have a process or processes sending messages that are not being received anywhere. I can't think of anything off hand that would grab more memory as time went on, unless there is a bug in CSTools that doesn't release some space somewhere (need Meiko technical comment to answer that). Which version of CSTools are you using ? -- Paul Mitchell (CMA#86(18) MAG#65715 DoD#0145) | Physics Department, JANET: p.j.mitchell@uk.ac.keele.seq1 | Keele University, Keele, USENET: p.j.mitchell@seq1.keele.ac.uk | Staffordshire, ST5 5BG, U.K. BITNET: p.j.mitchell%seq1.keele.ac.uk@ukacrl | (+44 or 0)782 621111 ext 3966
