Howdy all, |

I been using Ktorrent for several months now. When I started using it, |
| 4 |
it used only a few hundred megabytes of ram and was running for a week |
| 5 |
or so without a restart. It rarely even showed up in top when sorted by |
| 6 |
memory usage. Certainly true when several Firefox browser profiles are |
| 7 |
open and running. Recently tho, it is using a lot more memory. Once it |
| 8 |
was several GBs and I had to close and restart Ktorrent to clear it up. |
| 9 |
It runs with a more normal memory usage for a while but then starts |
| 10 |
building up again. Once I get something downloaded, I copy it from the |
| 11 |
folder it downloads to over to other directories where I rename and |
| 12 |
organize things. Only active downloads remain listed within Ktorrent. |
| 13 |
This is from top. This is after less than a day of run time, likely |
| 14 |
around 12 hours or so. |

I checked and I'm on the same version as I have been using since I |
| 42 |
installed Ktorrent. I suspect the problem may be a dependency of |
| 43 |
Ktorrent and not Ktorrent itself, even tho it shows Ktorrent using the |
| 44 |
memory. I'm not quite sure how that could be but since Ktorrent itself |
| 45 |
hasn't changed, well, makes me wonder. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
Anyone else having this problem or have a idea of the cause? Could it |
| 48 |
be a USE flag that I can disable? I can disable things I don't use if |
| 49 |
needed. Is it something Ktorrent depends on that is causing this? |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Ideas? Thoughts? |

Thanks. |
