:This sounds like a good plan.  Do you have any resources you can 
:recommend on attaching a debugger to places in code that might be 
:causing the memory leak?

:I was referred to the FBSD handbook by someone on EFNet, but I don't see 
:any section describing attaching a debugger to the kernel.

:Help on this particular matter would be great :-)

    I think I've found the bug.

    Generally speaking, finding this sort of bug (one which does not cause
    an immediate crash) is a very difficult job for someone coming into
    it cold.  Bugs which cause immediate crashes are usually a lot easier
    to find.
