I've checked it every now and then and found nothing unusal.
While switching around 2.5/2.6 with and without patches, I've
added a graph for memory usage and noticed that there probably is
some sort of memory leak at least in 2.6 (without patch).

Here's the graph so far:

That inital drop is a restart I did by hand.

I'm currently testing 2.5 sans patches to see if this leak was
introduced with 2.5 -> 2.6.

I'll take a look at them today/tomorrow.

Hm. I was afraid you'd say that. You think it's wortwhile trying
to "rescue" the patch?
