Howcome DA's backup system kills all the ram and uses it all up during a backup? All our boxes have a min of 4GB of ram. Backing up 7 sites results in all available RAM being eaten up during the backup process. There was over 1.5gb of ram available prior to the 5am backup. After DA backups finishes there is less that 91K of available ram with 24k in swap????? We never see swapping on our boxes until we start running DA's backup cron. Our servers should never be swapping to disk but thanks to DA's backup system it exhausted all available ram to the point of pushing the server to swap.
I cant imagine what happens when those of your are running less than 4GB on your boxes. Does you swap space increase 10 fold???
This is insane. Whats the point in having lots of ram? I bet that on 8GB we would still be seeing swapping.
