Without threading I don't see this effect, the memory usage stops at a sane limit and it's size can be affected by setting the max-cache-size option.

I don't think you would gain anything usable with that, am I right?
Right. Can you try a simpler patch that focuses on the memory usage
status and works with threads? If so, I'll write one and send it to
you.
Of course. The machines are diskless, so writing larger log files directly is not an easy task. (syslog is ok)

Okay, please use the attached patch (applicable to 9.5.0b1, and also
to 9.5.0b2 when it's published). Build it with:
% STD_CDEFINES='-DLRU_DEBUG2=2' ./configure --enable-threads
(or set STD_CDEFINES using setenv if you use a csh variant)
Will try, thanks.
ps: I have an other problem. I've recently switched from a last year 6-STABLE to 7-STABLE and got pretty bad results on the same machine with the same bind (9.4).
The graphs are here:
http://picasaweb.google.com/nagy.attila/20080129Fbsd6vs7Bind

The interesting part (from when the comments are valid) starts at around the half of the picture. You can see that on FreeBSD 6, the CPU load is pretty much good, but on 7, both the userspace and the kernelspace activity grows significantly.

I have no idea about why this happened at the moment. Do both server
handle the same level of query rate? (I'm also curious what happened
in the first half of the graphs for both cases).
Exactly the same (a per packet load balancer is in front of them). Even the machines are the same. I've replaced the pictures, the previous ones included some unintended reboot-n-try stuff.
I've used libthr on 6, and it is the default on 7 too. bind is threaded.
I use ISC_INTERNAL_MALLOC, but the effect is the same without it.

This shouldn't matter because ISC_INTERNAL_MALLOC is enabled by
default as of 9.4.
Ouch, I didn't know this. Thanks for the clarification.
