I'm actually not using OpenACS or ACS, but my own custom code.

I'm actually in the process of rewriting all my code so I don't think it will be
productive to do lots of testing of my old code base at this moment.  The new
code unfortunately isn't serving a real site and doesn't stay up long, so it's
also hard to determine at this point if there is a memory problem with it or
not.  Fairly soon, I will transition my site to use it.  The new code has some
mechanisms that will allow me to check the memory usage per-module, so it will
be obvious if the leak is inside AOLServer or in particular code of mine.

I'll report my findings at that point, but it probably won't be for a few weeks.
