The above message contained the following:

I'm not seeing any such memory leak in my LDM 6.2.1 system here.

Would you mind running the attached statistics-collecting script via a
crontab(1) entry every minute on the host on which the LDM grew quickly,
e.g.,

    * * * * * ./ps_stats_local >>hostname.ps_stats

Then, restart the LDM 6.2.1 on that host and send me the output file
near the end of the day.
