Re: [Gluster-devel] Problems with ioc again

[Anand Avati]

Dan,
 Is it feasible for you to try 1.4.0pre4? We have fixed a couple of
ioc leaks in that branch. Backporting them to the 1.3.x tree is a bit
hard for us at the moment since all the developers are maxed out on
tasks. Please let us know if there is no way around than upgrading to
1.4rc for you.
