Are you sure that you are referring to the correct snort.conf? We need more information. -- Joel Esler | Talos: Manager | jesler () cisco com<mailto:jesler () cisco com> On Sep 19, 2017, at 9:25 AM, Anna <Anna () sonru com<mailto:Anna () sonru com>> wrote: Hi, Snort: 2.9.9.0 OS: Centos 7 Recently Snort started to use a lot of memory, and it is constantly on 29-30% of usage, it did not happen before (even when Snort was using more memory at the beginning - it went down after an hour or two), the only change to the server was a Centos upgrade I put the memcap in the snort.conf —> stream5: global and restarted snort, but the memory usage did not go down. It is as Snort is ignoring the config Any help with this? <Screen Shot 2017-09-19 at 14.15.49.png> Thank you Anna _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists snort org<mailto:Snort-users () lists snort org> Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.snort.org/mailman/listinfo/snort-users Please visit http://blog.snort.org to stay current on all the latest Snort news!
