BIND has long had issues with threading since it started supporting<br>
threaded operation. I recommend you simply recompile without thread<br>
support.<br>

I retry compiling with thread support about twice a year and as of late<br>
last year, BIND still hung soon after restart with threading enabled.<br>

Experiences seem to differ widely in this respect. We've been running BIND<br>
threaded for many years now, on Solaris platforms (currently 9.6.2 under<br>
Solaris 10_x86), without encountering this sort of problem.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>how many queries did your named answered ?</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">

To the OP: do you specify max_cache_size? If not, what does the memory<br>
consumption of BIND look like when it gets into the non-functional state?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>yes, max-cache-size 512M but named process takes ~900MB</div><div><br></div></div><br>-- <br>Fabien<br>
