I now tried the idea whether the amount of memory in the machine has a relevance to my "inetd: double free detected in tcache 2, abort" issue. I tried "mem=8G" and similar as kernel boot parameter; that produced more-or-less the expected results for memory shown by "free", but did not help to fix the issue. I may try to change physical RAM modules, not sure whether have suitable replacements.
