The issue is the DNS resolver. We changed how Pascal applications resolve domain names. There is now only one version of it (located in LE) and it is used whether you are running a Pascal program or C. When it is called, LE loads and the memory is consumed. FTP, TELNET, and LPR are all Pascal programs, so they don't encounter the extra memory usage until the resolver is invoked. C programs require LE immediately and so see the extra memory consumption even without calling the resolver. "loopback" is short-cut in the "pre-resolver" code that bypasses the call to the LE resolver. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
