[rt-devel] Long attachments timeout

[Stanislav Sinyagin]

I couldn't reproduce the problem with freshly restarted Apache (1.3.27, mod_perl 1.27), 
will try again later.

Another problem is the allocated memory growth. After 2.8 Mb message, 
the Apache process memory is more than 300Mb:

bash-2.05b# ps -vcxa | egrep 'httpd|PID'

Is there a way to reduce the memory consumption? Save the message body 
to a temporary file, instead of keeping it in memory?

Stan
