I'm wondering why 'Actions' takes so much of memory (106 megs). What are
those 'actions' and why do they eat so much mem?

Hi. The problem seems to be in .354, too. Check this out:

Actions:                         3233610 90541080

Looks rather ridiculous. What stuff is included in those 'Actions' and
could it be debugged in the mud somehow? With add_action() sfun or
something.

A memory leak in the action handling?

This is OSB, running .156 - 34M for actions??

[Mateese:d-code] Hmm. Wenn ihr bei auch auf den Status schaut, habt 
ihr auch
   so irre hohe Werte unter 'Actions'?
   [Coogan@TubMud:d-code] nein ... Actions:           7433   178392
   [Freaky@UNItopia:d-code] Actions: 257878  6189072 (Gesamt: 86092935)
   [Mateese:d-code] Uptime?
   [Freaky@UNItopia:d-code] 10 Tage
   [Mateese:d-code] Hmm, wenn es ein schleichendes Leck ist, faellt es 
   nach nur
      10 Tagen wahrscheinlich noch nicht auf.
