First off, this memory leak DOES NOT affect Unicorn itself. Unicorn allocates the HttpParser once and always reuses it in every sequential request. This leak affects applications which repeatedly allocate a new HTTP parser. Thus this bug affects _all_ deployments of Rainbows! and Zbatery. These servers allocate a new parser for every client connection. I misread the Data_Make_Struct/Data_Wrap_Struct documentation and ended up passing NULL as the "free" argument instead of -1, causing the memory to never be freed. From README.EXT in the MRI source which I misread: > The free argument is the function to free the pointer > allocation. If this is -1, the pointer will be just freed. > The functions mark and free will be called from garbage > collector.
