+ * braunr hunting the exec leak
+ <braunr> and i think i found it
+ <braunr> yes :>
+ <braunr> testing a bit more and committing the fix later tonight
+ <braunr> pinotree: i've been building glibc for 40 mins and exec is still
+ consuming around 1m memory
+ <pinotree> wow nice
+ <pinotree> i've been noticing exec leaking quite some time ago, then forgot
+ to pay more attention to that
+ <braunr> it's been more annoying since darnassus provides web access to
+ cgis
+ <braunr> automated tools make requests every seconds
+ <braunr> the leak occurred when starting a shell script or using system()
+ <braunr> youpi: not sure you saw it, i fixed the exec leak
