Hi all,
I wondered if anyone had noticed anything unusual in the memory usage of BBWin 0.13.
We've a number of servers running this version of the client and also a number running BBWin 0.12.
All the 0.12 clients are using less than 10Mb of memory, however some of the 0.13 clients are using a lot more (a large number using between 250Mb and 400Mb and even one that was using over 1Gb).
Has anyone seen this behaviour on their systems?
Regards,

I'd noticed what seemed to be a leak when sending large status messages; somewhere 8700 and 8900 or so bytes was the threshold for a lack of release, but it wasn't easily reproducible. (The threshold seemed to be constant within a bbwin service session, but varied between stops/starts of the bbwin service.) If you look at http://xymonton.org/monitors:lsmon you'll see my code to work around this issue: invoking bbwincmd with uploadmessage instead of merely putting the file in tmpPath when the file is bigger than LEAKYMAX.
