Resource Usage

The resident size of the snmpd daemon depends on how the SMA is used.

The snmpd daemon dynamically allocates memory for certain MIB table data, for example, when you have defined printers, and then walk the Host Resource MIB. The resident size of the snmpd daemon can increase by up to 100Kbytes depending upon the number of printers you have defined.
