pgpool2 memory footprint

Hi,

apologies if this is the wrong place to report this.

I'm using 3.7.5. My scenario is that I have applications using pgpool and they never disconnect. Pgpool worker processes with high CPU time are consuming a lot of memory. Here is one example:

postgres  15329  4.9 13.9 1885164 1730852 ?     S    Oct11 419:56 pgpool: XXX XXX X.X.X.X(54197) idle

That machine has 12GB of ram and the process's memory keeps increasing. Is that a known behavior in pgpool and we MUST disconnect from time to time to allow pgpool to recycle the workers or can this be a memory leak?

Thanks,

Rafael.
