* bug#1504: 23.0.60; emacs daemon leaks memory

When I do:

   $ emacs -Q --daemon

followed by:

   $ while true; do emacsclient -t -e "(save-buffers-kill-terminal)"; done

then the daemon apparently consumes increasingly more memory.

Could you check whether this happens with the ordinary Emacs server as
well?

When I do:

   $ emacs -nw -Q --eval "(server-start)"

instead of "emacs -Q --daemon" above, it also uses more and more memory.

Does this memory increase persist across garbage collections?  Also,
could you check if Emacs 22 has a similar problem, or if it's new to
Emacs 23?

Thanks.

Yes, unfortunately.

After trying, I found no similar problem in Emacs 22.3 so far. The test
case does not translate directly to older Emacs versions, and in all
compatible cases I tested, CVS and 22.3 performed equally well and OK.

For example, when I do "emacs -Q -nw -f server-start" and evaluate:

   (defun myedit ()
     (run-with-timer 0.1 nil 'server-edit))

   (add-hook 'after-change-major-mode-hook 'myedit)

Then

   $ while true; do emacsclient test.txt; done

does not leak memory, regardless of which version I try it with.
