Memory usage

I am seeing what looks like a memory leak.

I am using the latest version of pubsub.py from mod_pubsub (0.994) on Redhat (WS3) (and see the same problem on solaris).  If I leave the server running for more than 3 days, ~50% of the memory is used by pubsub.py and the system becomes unresponsive.

If I run the server and then run the perftool I will get an increase in memory usage as displayed by top.  That number never goes down even after I stop perftool.

I am trying to use mod_pubsub in a 24/7 application and having to reboot the box every day or two is not a very attractive option.

Any suggestions?

Mark
