Leaking HTTP requests (was: RE: [Zope] Leaking Acquisition.Im plic itAcquirerWrapper)

[Jean-Francois.Doyon at CCRS.NRCan.gc.ca]

I do indeed use Localizer.

I have a second instance of the Zope/Product configuration on a seperate
machine, and so far I've been unable to replicate the problem.

One thing I wanted to do was look at my REQUEST.set to see if that could
cause problems.

As for this global request patch, I'm not sure what you mean ... The test
instance also uses Localizer and doesn't seem to suffer from the problem.
The main thing here is that I'm not testing under load, just manually,
trying to track down which actions might trigger refcounts.

What's this patch exactly ? I do some monkey patching (Quite a bit actually,
more than I should!) but nothing that messes with the request/response
system.

I have one place that uses REQUEST.set with wrapped objects ... based on
what I've seen in some mailing list archives and from Dieter, this could
very well be the cause ... (Not sure though, I used to have this on my
previous site also, and never noticed it leaking ...)

Thanks again for the assistance, it's proving very helpful :)

This confirms my suspicion somewhat that the global request patch is to 
blame. IIRC Localizer uses this, doesn't it?

Do you have the possibility to test without the (monkey?) patch, or 
without Localizer entirely?

Huima has just recently reported pretty much the same bug and he is 
using PTS, which again utilizes the global request patch (I think).
