there was a report a few days ago that failed outbound TCP connections leak
memory. Someone was running in an environment where the recipient was cutting
the connections frequently and they were seeing a slight, but steady increase in
memory use as a result.

Subject: Re: [rsyslog] Potential memory leak in rsyslog v 8.23.0
It was not yet. My guess is that this bug is triggered by some
environment options. So we would need to find a way to reproduce the
issue or have a memory leak report (e.g. vial valgrind) from an
affected system.
Note that the testbench routinely checks for memory leaks, but
obviously we can cover only a small number of potential environments.

We have deployed 8.23.0 to a utility server in our network and anecdotal
evidence (long-term records of memory use) indicate we have a gradually
rising memory consumption on the machine. The folks at CloudFoundry provide
more details about the leak
https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh/issues/1537#issuecomment-267339363
which suggests it is a real problem. I'm curious to know if this is on the
radar of the amazing rsyslog development team.

Hello,
We are observing rsyslogd using an excessive amount of memory after bumping
from v 8.22.0 to v 8.23.0.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
