Hello Everyone,

We have had a memory leak due to an interaction with eventlet for a while that Johannes has just made a fix for.

bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/903199

fix:
https://bitbucket.org/which_linden/eventlet/pull-request/10/monkey-patch-threadingcurrent_thread-as

Unfortuantely, I don' t think we have a decent workaround for nova while that patch is upstreamed.  I wanted to make sure that all of the distros are aware of it in case they want to carry an eventlet patch to prevent the slow memory leak.

Vish
