RE: [Mldonkey-users] Paused d/l and memory leaks?

[Anders Norrbring]

Oh well.. Savannah's down right now, so I can't check the reports you
mention.  Will do later.

The pause problem is kind of easy to live with, but the memory eating
isn't... It's been like this since 2.5-4, so it's no new bug invented in
later development.  I'll do a restart every now and then and watch out for
new inventions from the developers.

Anders.
