Re: memory leaks

Brent,
  The 'leak' has been plugged in the read-ahead translator of the
latest tla patch. the problem was an integer overflow issue where the
'size' parameter for the flush function was 32bit but when the file
was bigger than 4GB, the code tried to flush a region from 0 to >4GB.
changing the function prototype to have a 64bit size fixed it. 

The 'leak' was actually not a 'leak' because when the file was closed,
everything was flushed and free'd.

thanks!
