memory leak stikes back

[Thomas De Schampheleire]

Hi Łukasz,

Apart from some code changes we did to improve/eliminate some caching
mechanisms, we also added a note to our documentation to clarify the
expectations. See the bottom of the following page:
https://kallithea.readthedocs.io/en/stable/overview.html

Basically, we can not avoid certain memory growth in the context of a
single process, and the recommended approach is to ensure that the web
server process recreates its workers regularly.

For gearbox/waitress, this can be done automatically with the
setting threadpool_max_requests, which is set to 100 by default in the ini
file produced by 'kallithea-cli config-create'.

Is this setting present in your ini file?
Could you share the ini file?

Thanks
Thomas
