Although I have 96MB real memory I never saw 77MB process size when
observing this specific bug. My machine usually starts to become
unusable when 'ps -elf' still reports 20MB memory used.
30 R k 16524 770 16 68 20 * 20514:16024 ....
I just repeated the test with 5.003_07 and 5.04 with a freshly booted
machine. ps -elf reported a growth to 21278:19706, swap -s reported
that 127.86m of swap space were used after 0m before :-/
I have been using GET on IRIX for a long time, but only
occasionally. I have never seen this phenomenon before 5.04, but I
cannot remember which big file transfers succeeded with which versions
:-( I tried to reinstall several earlier versions, but now I see the
bug all of the time.
