Unfortunately this is not so good as you describe :((
I know about mmap, but the following figures are not due to
this call, but all the memory had been eaten by malloc()-s,
and was visible as heap, not system shared memory. Please pay
attention to free memory below - and the system has 1GB RAM,
and now - without leaking innfeed, - we have 600MB free.
I can say the same about swap - we have 1GB free space there,
but today morning 2/3 was used. So the problem is still exists,
I saw this pig not for the first time. :((( Is there any chance
of Pyrify-ing this monster?
