Hi, this test is really interesting. I've a doubt since it occurs the same to me in my EM based project:

If you run "ruby server.rb" followed by "ruby client.rb" and leave them running for ~10 seconds, then server.rb takes ~6% of memory. Then stop the client.rb. The server.rb will still consume the same 6% of memory, it is *never* decreased.

It's not a memory leak, I know it due to lot of tests in my project. It's different, it's like it EM does not free the unused memory, but when more data must be processed then it reuses the same memory.

Is there any other explanation?

Thanks.
