So the last patch fixed it? If this is the case, should both patches be
applied to 2.3.1 before it is released on the weekend? I added file #14560 as
bug #19007.
Memory saving is mostly due to the freed private/known maps ...

I will try - if it is wrong please correct me!
lines is (now) calculated as the number of int values needed to save the
known information of each tile, i.e (max used player index / 32 + 1).
example: max used player index = 60 => 60/32 + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2
Now the player information has to be saved in the int values. It is done
such, that in int 1, information for player 0 .. 31 is saved, int 2 takes
player 32 to 63 etc. Calculating the bit index within the int is done using
the following equation:
[bit] = p - l * 8
with p = (player index) and l = p / 32; as l is an int the last equation is
equal to l = floor(p/32), i.e. round down. Thus, the equation reads
[bit] = p - floor(p/32) * 8
which limits it to values between 0 and 31.
l is also used to select the correct int value in the calucaltion of the
index for the bitvector known (lines 2836-2837 in savegame2.c of trunk):
known[l * MAP_INDEX_SIZE + tile_index(ptile)] |= (1u << (p - l * 8));
