I attached four different versions of nse_main.lua that make incremental changes. Please try running each of the four and report the times you get. Just copy each one over nse_main.lua in turn. David FifieldSorry for the delay, it's been a very busy work week. Here are the measurements you asked for with your custom versions of nse_main.lua. Please note that the values will fluctuate ~2% from run to run, but within about that margin of error the runs were very consistent with themselves. Also, these were all run with nmap 5.35DC1, with nse_main.lua replaced by the file indicated. nse_main.lua.1: 53732 kB RAM, 5m40s nse_main.lua.2: 53588 kB RAM, 5m21s nse_main.lua.3: 55512 kB RAM, 5m27s nse_main.lua.4: 54352 kB RAM, 5m22s Since none of those seem to display any problems, I went and ran a bunch of other things: 1) Here's the nse_main.lua pulled from 5.36TEST2 and copied over into 5.35DC1 54448 kB RAM, 5m23s 2) Same as #1, but with the CONCURRENCY_LIMIT lowered to 100 54312 kB RAM, 5m32.126s 3) Here's the vanilla nmap 5.36TEST2 on the same machine (when I run this one, I compile it but don't install it, then I run it from the directory it was compiled in). 94532 kB RAM, 14m48sWhen you are running from the same directory, do you use "--datadir ."? If not, it might be referring to the wrong nse_main.lua (the installed one). Try your command with nmap --datadir . <args..>Nathan, did --datadir fix the problem?
I've been on vacation for the last several weeks. Starting testing as you asked now. I'll post the results later today or tomorrow, assuming I can hold off my coworkers that long... ;-) ~ Nathan _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/
