Re: BDB uses far more memory than it's supposed to; ideas?

As noted, that's pretty massive.  I don't think it's reasonable at all.
Here's some stats for comparable daemons that I quickly plucked out of a
"ps axu" on the box I'm running fred:

named	    3.17 MB
imapd	    2.85 MB
mysqld	   17.33 MB
apache2	    7.82 MB
postgres    6.47 MB
fred	  120.82 MB

Now, to me, fred is seeming a little out of place there.  Even if it was
64MB, that's still three times the size of mysql's footprint.

What, exactly, requires all this memory?

Bob
