Is there a maximum though?  I mean, above certain point, Snort cannot
make use of the memory?  Like WinXP cannot see more than 4 GB of memory
in the system??

 

Thanks.

There is no minimum for Snort, the more memory you have for Snort, the
better it will run.

Lack of memory, I think so, I try the same set on my virtual LAN with my
lappie. Its about almost 1 GB of memory.
Ow.. I see clearly now, 

Now I am using 512 MB of RAM and Snort still stuck on the road...
after Not Using PCAP_FRAMES...

I also has change the "config detection" to "search-method ac-bnfa"
and the snort process still stuck.

so, how much minimum requirement of memory that snort needs?

Thanks 
Mat
