That should really not be happening.  My server host has 38 days uptime
and pbs_server is using 15MB of ram.  That's with 1700 nodes and 1200+
jobs every day.

Set 'PBSDEBUG=5' in your env and run pbs_server under gdb or valgrind.
Please send any valgrind errors and/or a gdb backtrace of a crash.

My primary goals are stability, flexibility, and reasonable
administration.  The "everything" features are for moab :)
