rTorrent memory leak!!!

Well I had programs randomly crashing on me (cups, mysql, backuppc, etc...) so I check dmesg and found this: http://rafb.net/p/3WFxzG78.html

So I've been monitoring htop for the last hour and it seems like rtorrent is leaking memory on my machine. It has gone from 4% to 16% and it continues climb. I'm not downloading anything, only seeding.  I am using rTorrent 0.8.0 and libtorrent 0.12.0 I compiled both from source and used this patch http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/ticket/1266 so I could compile with gcc 4.3

I've been using rtorrent for a while with no issues so I'm not sure what the problem is here!

Any help would be great!
Thanks

Re: rTorrent memory leak!!!

Well After some more testing I found it is a issue with rtorrent + xmlrpc-c (svn). When I compiled rtorrent without xmlrpc-c support, rtorrent was fine.
