Etienne,
After i changed the time to 10min, the memory used by BBWin is still growing, but not as fast as before. The event logs contains both information events and warning events. The stats for the 10m: Events Analyzed: 303 (1123 for 30m) Events Matched: 101 (404 fof 30m) Events Ignored: 0
The description fields of most of the events are about 200 chars long.
Regards, Ivan

Hello again,

Etienne,
The server is a Windows 2003 server with SP1(Standard Edition - english). It's used as an application server with specific software(no
webserver,no database) and there is no other monitoring tool or antivirus installed. I figured out the module that is the cause the problem and its the msgs.dll. If i remove that line from the the config the memory usages seems normal. The size of the event log is 58Mb (5days), with quite a lot of activity in the application log.
Thank you for the mail, It is a nice information. Now, you can try to reduce the time of the events matched. Default is 30 minutes. You may try to reduce to 10 minutes by adding this to the msgs section :
<setting name="delay" value="10m" />
Also could you give me the summary of your msgs column ? Summary:
Events Analyzed: Events Matched: Events Ignored:
Is it just information events or is it error or warning events ? Are the description fields long or not ?

I'm actually doing some tests and investigations with what you said. I'm testing BBWin with a delay on 200 days for msgs (it represents 274330 events so it is a nice test), and the memory seems to grow indeed ...
For the moment and for this server, you should remove the msgs agent load directive in BBWin.cfg until I find out the solution.

Does restarting the BBWin service alleviate the memory hog? Might be worthwhile to schedule a restart of the service weekly.
Just an idea...
