How did you know that it's at word boundaries? My system was regularly decreasing the free memory value at 4 byte steps. > > I don't see this behavior the other side of the link (same hardware, > this software): > > LEAF Bering-uClibc 2.3 uClibc 0.9.20 Rev 2 > Linux cujo 2.4.32 #1 Sat Mar 4 21:00:13 CET 2006 i686 unknown > ipsec 2.4.4 Rev 4 Openswan IPSEC I was scouting the net a bit last night. Apparently a leak appeared in OpenSwan 2.4.5 some time ago and still persists up to 2.4.7 and kernel 2.4.34 :-( So it is possible that 2.4.4 does not show this problem. Unfortunately 2.4.7 is the latest you can get at Xelerance. I was planning to move my system towards StrongSwan as I can get excellent local support for this software (the developers live around the corner). This problem will definitely speed this effort up.
