kded memory leak

2005-06-20 Thread Ian Eure
The 3.4.0 and 3.4.1 packages on alioth seem to have a pretty substantial memory leak in kded. Over the course of a week or so of uptime, kded grew to eat up over 500mb of memory, and bogged the system down severely. I closed /all/ open apps, and the size didn't decrease substantially. Right now
