[Twisted-Python] Twisted Memory Leaks & Epoll

Hi Glyph,

I have not tried with current trunk or Twisted 2.4.

We are getting another production machine ready with 2.6.18 kernel and Python 2.4.4, and we will migrate that server there within a week from the current 2.6.11 / 2.4.1.

We will try it there both with Twisted 2.2 poll and with 2.5 poll/epoll. I will post the results after we migrate, especially whether epoll is in the edge-triggered or in the level-triggered mode.

I'm sorry we could help you more with that particular leak when it happened.  Not that I know of any particular issues that have been fixed since the 2.5 release, but I wonder - have you yet tried this application with current trunk, and did you ever try it with Twisted 2.4?
