Re: Snort with low mem

I don't *think* anything has changed in the lowmem search method in recent releases, maybe someone from devel can 
comment on it, however, in 2.8.6, we have a new bnfa search method which is faster and uses less memory than before.  
Might want to check that one out.

Hi,

I am using snort 2.8.5. I tried running snort with and without 

config detection: serach-method lowmem

But with both the memory required is same. I remember in earlier version(long back 2.3.0) I used to see less memory 
requirement with lowmem algorithm. Is something changed in recent releases?

Rgds,
Parag
