I have a XBox console with a minimal Gentoo distro and I have installed amule 2.1.2 in it to use it as a file sharing box. I had a hard time making it work because the XBox has only 64 MB RAM, so I built a minimal kernel, removed most services and compiled amule without X as a daemon (amuled).
With this configuration, if I disable KAD, everything works perfect. Amule tends to use a VSZ of about 40-45 MB and works pretty stable. But if I enable KAD, memory usage starts to slowly grow and grow until the system becomes unstable and I have to stop amuled (when it reachs a VSZ of about 80-90 MB).
Is there a known memory leak in KAD module?
