argus crash problem

[Lei Wei]

Hello,

I've met with some crashing issue when using argus to continously 
monitoring the dag interface. The version I'm now using is argus-3. It 
happened several times that after about 10 hours of monitoring, the 
argus process died by itself for some reason. The system is a 
Freebsd5.4 on a 2G memory and 2G CPU machine. I periodically checked 
the memory usage of argus process when it's running, it seemed that 
most of the time it consumed under 400Mb of memory and above 50% CPU 
usage, and sometime even 99% of CPU usage. Could anyone give me some 
hint on what could possibly cause argus to crash and what I could do to 
prevent it?

Thanks.
Lei
