Hi All,

We have been experiencing a slow memory leak with ATS 6.2.1 which requires a 
process restart (before memory exhaust) on the order of weeks. We have tried to 
gather information with a debug build (compiled with --enable-debug and 
--with-tcmalloc-lib), but the process seems to be unstable and crash after a 
couple of days with these build options. Since the heap-check seems to output 
only on normal program exit, we have manually stopped the process after a 
couple of days with the following results --

-- So does this look like a possible memory leak signature (with the 
cache-related AIO)? Appreciate any recommendations and insights for this issue.

Thanks,
Peter
