Looks like that. The  strace o/p is the same as before:

mmap(NULL, 14671872, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS,
-1, 0) = 0x2aaacb2a8000
mmap(NULL, 14675968, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS,
-1, 0) = 0x2aaacc0a6000
munmap(0x2aaacc0a6000, 14675968)        = 0
brk(0x922c000)                          = 0x840d000
mmap(NULL, 14807040, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS,
-1, 0) = 0x2aaacc0a6000
mmap(NULL, 14811136, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS,
-1, 0) = 0x2aaaccec5000
munmap(0x2aaaccec5000, 14811136)        = 0
brk(0x924d000)                          = 0x840d000


One possible option is to downgrade to translate-toolkit 1.2.1 and see
if it improves things, but the odd thing is that this is only a recent
occurence, and everything had been running smoothly earlier. I wonder
what changed.

Thanks,
Sayamindu
