[OSM-talk] planet2mysql.rb

[Jon Bright]

Hi,

I looked through the archives at gmane and didn't see anything which 
seemed to cover this.  I've been running planet2mysql.rb on 
planet-070718.osm since last night.  It's not finished, but top shows me:

   PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND 
 
         28322 sircus    35  19 1570m 1.5g 1284 R   64 77.3 665:29.71 
ruby

Is it normal for planet2mysql to take 1.5GB memory?  I've looked through 
the script and it doesn't seem like it should.  Looking at "show table 
status", it does still seem to be importing data, slowly.  But if it 
carries on increasing its memory use (which it's currently doing), I'll 
have to stop it shortly - the machine only has 2GB of memory.

What do other people see when running planet2mysql?  The archives 
mentioned it being slow (which isn't really a problem for me) but nobody 
mentioned it eating this much RAM...
