You really should subscribe to the devel list, if you're not already. The forwarding isn't exactly a sustainable solution. > There is still a memory leak with rc8 on my setup.

Interesting - I only have one server working in the cluster (the 2nd server isn't built yet), but I was getting a leak before with this setup (just one server being up), so something has clearly been fixed. Are you using any performance translators? IIRC, io-threads and/or io-cache were known to have leakyness issues. Gordan
