• Unexpected purge/re-backup behaviour
    ↪Gleb

    Thanks Gleb - it is indeed .32. I saw there was a .39 but no indications of what was in it when I looked earlier (since fixed with your note on the .32 release notes).

    I'll get .39 running and let you know if the problem continues.
  • Unexpected purge/re-backup behaviour
    So far so good on the purge/backup behaviour - no repeats since installing 2.5.

    That said, it's become VERY memory hungry - currently chewing up over 10GB of memory in idle state:
    keith@here ~ $ free -m
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:          15998       14998         186          98         813         527

    Swappiness is set to pretty much disable it (never been a fan of an SSD being hit hard as a result of bad memory management) so I'm guessing if I were to go digging it would be CloudBerry that's triggered the swap too.

    Is this something that's already on the radar to be fixed? Can the background processes be forcibly reset by the CLI to release that memory?

    Thanks,
    Keith

    Thanks for the help guys. 2.5 installed so fingers crossed.

    I'm not sure on the lifecycle/dev environment you develop with that might make it easier but seeing various comments around use of CloudBerry Backup in business environments you may be surprised on the number of people interest in full release notes.

    Thanks Caleb - I am indeed running a 2.4 iteration at the moment. I'll take a look at the 2.5 upgrade.

    Where do you publish full release notes? I've never been a fan of always upgrade to the latest just because it's there - while bug fixes and security fixes will usually drive the upgrade (rather than new features) the question of how quickly still depends on what they are.

    Quick response - Thanks Matt.

    I am using S3 but there aren't any lifecycle rules setup on the bucket. I'm assuming no lifecycle rules means nothing ever expires.

    The purge logs I mentioned are a large number of these:
    2018-07-30 06:00:11,384460 [INFO ]: [ CBB ] [ 4 ] Purge file success, path: <filename>

    It reads as CBB choosing to purge the file rather than S3 expiring it but I could be wrong.
