If you're upgrading, go the full mile and get 0.6.7-beta5 instead. It's
certified as being leakfree. Always assuming libdbi doesn't leak, ofcourse.

By the look of things, you've got malformed entries sneaking in to the
stream, causing merlin to lose a grip on things. I have no idea why. If
both servers are running the same version of merlin this really shouldn't
happen.

On a brighter side, I'll turn my full attention towards implementing and
making sure redundancy, failover and all that other juicy stuff works in
a mere fortnight.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
