thanks.

has this patch been included in the recent rc's?

and howcome the other servers work normally [all with md]? at least so far the
memory usages aren't concerning, although the linear increase is starting to
show. perhaps the [different] apps running on them don't expose the leak as well
the one that broke today... is that reasonable?
