Thanks for that!

I had planned a restart, but things went haywire before I could do that. Memory usage shot up from the 600+mb it had been using to about 2.7GB in a short amount of time. Restarting shibd and apache resolved the issue. It's running fine now using about 366mb. Do you have any ideas what could have caused that or how I might go about searching for a cause? I've already looked at the logs and there didn't seem to be a significant increase in number of requests.
