They seem to indicate a problem with gamin and its interaction with inotify and
reports "Probably leaking memory".
The process referred to is gam_server.
The version of the Linux kernel installed is: linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-686
2.6.32-5
The Linux instance is running on VMware VSphere 4 and is using open-vm-tools.
It is an email server using the courier-imap-ssl daemon which makes use of
FAM/GAMIN.
Regards,
