My uvconfig ULIMIT parameter was way way too big.
The default is 128000, ours was 800.
I changed it to 128000 and the memory leak got plugged.
It's one of those things where it was set big when I took over and

That's very good, but DICT &NEXT.AVAILABLE& sure is ugly. It means you
can't make a dictionary read-only. Dictionaries should be under source

Then give a utility to edit it si

Please let me deflect this thread before it degenerates into a GOTO war.
