We have a 486/DX4/100 running NetBSD1.0 on a PCI motherboard.
ed0,ed1, ncr0 devices are all configured.
sd0 is a 500Mb SCSI2 disk, main memory is 16Mb, 32Mb swap is allocated.
For some reason, whenever someone telnets in and then breaks the connection
telnetd does not seem to release memory correctly. Is this a known problem,
is there a known solution (other than migrating to -current, I can't do
that until it's verified stable) ?
