Yes, I only observed it on the server. I think I can reproduce it here,
at least I already crashed machine 3 times. It looks like it fires with
random IO (can not say if read or write though), since the same overall
amount of data read or written sequentially did not result in OOM
condition, but leak still may be presented there if credential is
attached in single readpages()... Do not know.
