Quoting Matthew Hilty <mhilty at artic.edu>:

| Hi all,
| 	I've just recently provided access to IMP 3.1 to a ~3000 user
| community which had been using 2.2.8 for about a year without problems.
| During tests, the problem I'm about to describe did not exhibit itself,
| but under the load of our production environment, it turns out that we're
| experiencing occasional runaway httpd processes that consume up to 500+Mb
| of RAM, and which force the server to swap dramatically.

Is this the problem with aspell we always see?  Or is that Solaris-only?
