Has anyone had problems with curl_easy_cleanup() ??? For some reason it is
coring on my RH-AS-3.0 box. I understand that my explanation is vague, but,
I cant reproduce it, it just periodically happens. I've run top and other ps
commands, and the system seems to be stable(ie not out of memory). If you
notice, the pointer being passed into curl_easy_cleanup() appears to be a
valid one.

Here is the stack trace:

I have a process which will be making a single request over and over
(different data in the post). Should I be using a single CURL* object (ie
call init() once and never call cleanup()) ?
I have tried this and the memory leakage growth is HUGE...

Thank you,
