Note that Perl never frees memory back to the OS once it has allocated
it although it might be unused internally.

> I noticed an increase of memory usage over time as well on radiusd. Quite a long time though, but an increase non-the-less. 10% right now for example. When I stop/start the service, it drops and remains at about 0.5% again. I have 4 identically synced config servers, where 2 are constantly used, and 2 are not (backups). The 2 constantly used are the ones that have the increase of memory. The increase of memory is noticeable, but radiator does continue to work very well. Since this doesn't cause issues, it's not really important to me at this time, but i just thought i would mention it.
