Well, at IdMOO we found something interesting.. one day our process size
jumped about 10 megabytes. We were testing a new server (1.7.9p2 plus a
few goodies I stuck into it) so I got blamed, but we tracked it to this
instead:
Someone owned an object whose name was a series of 1's and 0's, about
300-500 characters. One of our wizards was running match() on object
names, using the regexp: .*aphid.*
Boom, instant +10 megabytes process.
