I've started playing a little with Postgres to determine if there were
memory leaks running around.  After some very brief checking, I'm
starting[1] to think that the answer is yes.  Has anyone already gone
through a significant effort to locate and eradicate memory leaks?  Is
this done periodically?  If so, what tools are others using?  I'm
currently using dmalloc for my curiosity.

[1] Not sure yet as I'm really wanting to find culumative leaks rather
than one shot allocations which are simply never freed prior to process
termination.
