Hello Roman, the new ACID cvs-version works great for me, my browser doesn't hang any longer. Thanks for this cool tool. Michi ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Since version 0.9.6b15, there have been reports that the page loading time in ACID slows down over time ultimately resulting in complete hanging of the browser; if PHP memory-limits were enabled, exhaustion of memory; and bloated httpd memory usage. I believe this problem has been isolated to inefficient usage of memory in storing state information required to support the "back button". All version of ACID since 0.9.6b15 are affected. Committed to CVS is code which: * improves memory usage (it is not optimal yet, but at least session usage is no longer growing 18K ^ n bytes per page load; where n denotes how many pages you have viewed since acid_main.php. Memory usage is now 18K * n). * introduces the configuration variable $maintain_history in acid_conf.php to toggle whether a page history should be kept to support the "back button". Default is $maintain_history=1, which keeps this state. However, if you continue experiencing problems related to memory usage set $maintain_history=0. * prints debugging information to display the size of the current PHP session (if $debug_mode=1). Thanks for all the various bug reports, Roman _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
