Twice now, Freenet has suddenly, as in a matter of
seconds, increased its memory usage by about 500mb, to
a total of 6-700mb. It's extremely obvious because it
flushes all my current memory to disk (512mb physical
ram), killing everything. The memory is not released
again until I restart Freenet.

This is not related to the start of any other program,
nor to any local program using Freenet. I've not
experienced this problem with any build prior to 5061,
the two latest being 5050 and 5057.

Frankly, this build is simply useless to me, as I
can't leave it running when unattended or it'll
disrupt everything else. For all Freenet does, each
node is basically a caching router. 

Now I know I'm comparing apples and oranges, but
compared to a iptables/squid box, Freenet's resource
use is abhorrent. I know Freenet has more data that
needs to remain in memory (specifically, the files we
only route, not cache) but it's still using a terribly
lot of both CPU and memory.
