Public bug reported: Binary package hint: dtc-xen
We have discovered that when a xm start/stop/shutdown is requested using the dtc-xen SOAP daemon, dtc-xen tries to trap the stdout/stderr in order to be able to forward it to the SOAP client that connects to it. The issue is that after it did so, it didn't release stderr/stdout, so that they are going into an internal variable of dtc-xen instead. The result is that, after a xm start/stop/shutdown: - dtc-xen leaks memory, with a variable that takes the output of xm list every minutes - the dataCollector thread that does xm list cannot get the CPU statistics as it was designed for, because the output is redirected to a variable. Upgrading to version 0.5.13 from SID fixes the issue. This change has been already accepted by the Squeeze release team. Please sync v0.5.13 from SID ASAP.
