Lukas, just to confirm your findings, I have the exact same problem
and reported it about 2 months ago. Just like you, when all my stuff
was running under 32-bit, it wasn't an issue because of the 2GB limit,
but now that I'm using 64-bit for everything, it is a potential system
crashing bug.

We want to reproduce the leak in our setup to fix it. What is your
setup on the client side? How many servers do you have? What are the
applications you run on the mount point? Do you observe leak only
when
"certain" operations are done? (I am just looking for more clues)
upon my investigation, it seems that the io-cache translator ignores
the cache
size config option and on 64bit systems is can easily eat whole
memory. On
32bit, it usually fails to mmap additional data due to 2GB limit to
process
address space.
