Snort 2.6 has a much larger memory foot print than < 2.6. I encourage a browse through the faq on Snort.org for more info on this one. Joel On Thu, Sep 28, 2006 at 02:06:06PM -0700, Jain, Siddhartha apparently sent me:
Hi, I am running Snort (2.6.0.2) on an old Sun Ultra 5 with Solaris 7 (32-bit). The memory usage is running to 200M even without any traffic. Is that normal for snort?
