Last Friday I've installed pgAdmin 1.12.2 (build Dec 13, 2010) into one of our clients servers (Windows server 2003 SE SP2). Postgresql 8.3.3 runs on it. As we were looking how to improve performance we were using Server Status tool (great tool, especially with recent changes - thank you for it). I have noticed that pgAdmin consumes virtual memory when the tool is running. The increment is small (~50Kb) and it happens every 6 seconds or so.. I have noticed, that even if I increase the update interval to 1minute that does not effect the MV increase - it still happens as before. Today I have opened the Server Status tool, and during an hour or so the VM size used by pgAdmin increased from 13Mb to 28Mb. I tried to reproduce the behavior on other systems but with no success yet. Could you give me a hint what I should try? -- Julius Tuskenis Programavimo skyriaus vadovas UAB nSoft mob. +37068233050
