Well, lets see here. a quick rough guide:1) if you aren't running snort 1.8.6 or better, download and install that. from the release notes:
* Fixed stream4 several low memory conditions2) if you have little memory in your system, either buy more ram, or shut down unnecessary garbage that a snort sensor doesn't need (ie: xwindows).
3) trim down your ruleset. If that's not enough info, I agree with Chris: >how much memory do you have, what snort version, what configuration options?Without that information it's impossible to make any kind of reasonable estimate of where your problem lies, only broad generalizations.

Is this the flaw inside the program?How can I prevent the daemon from dying after 5-6 hours? kukulkan _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
