Something wrong is happening. Lots of folks are running apache/openssl
servers for days, weeks, etc., at a time.
If you're seeing memory leaks like you describe, then it is far more
likely that the like is either in your code, or there's a bug in the way
you're calling OpenSSL. Do you get the same growth when openssl isn't
used? Make sure you "xxx_free" every object you "xxx_new".
