We've installed a Barracuda box as a crap filter and it has put some
stress on our dns server.  Dns was breaking, so I un-unioned the RR
data structure and added a nil pointer check one place and it stays
up now.  But how big will it get?

Looks like 115 megs and counting.  Will it stabilize
or is there a memory leak?

There is a memory leak.
Too bad too, since I thought I had gotten the last one.  ;-)

leak(1) is your friend, though you might want to run it
before dns gets quite so big.
