+Summary: mono eats memory running on SLES
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what 
+you are doing.
+Description of Problem:
+The SLES 9 runs out of memory after starting my application and the lost 
+memory will not be free after stopping the app.
+This didn't happens running the application on windows xp using mono 1.0.6 
+or 1.1.4!!!
+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Extract the zip-file
+2. Open ./webcam/etc/webcam.ini and change the Url if you like
+3. Open ./webcam/httpget/bin/Debug/httpget.exe.config and change the 
+pathnames
+4. if you like log4net: # 
+mv ./webcam/httpget/bin/Debug/httpget.exe.log4net.ori ./webcam/httpget/bin/
+Debug/httpget.exe.log4net
+5. # nohup mono ./webcam/httpget/bin/Debug/httpget.exe &
+
+Steps to reproduce a running configuration under Windows:
+1. Extract the zip-file on drive C:, or use another drive what require 
+changes in the config-file
+2. Open <drive:>\webcam\etc\webcam.ini and change the Url if needed
+3. Open <drive:>\webcam\httpget\bin\Debug\httpget.exe.config and change 
+the settings if needed
+4. # mono <drive:>\webcam\httpget\bin\Debug\httpget.exe
+
+(a sidenote: I renamed the log4net-configuration file due to problems with 
+it on windows. It works on SLES.)
+
+Actual Results:
+the system runs out of memory (RAM)
+
+Expected Results:
+the used memory should have a constant value
+
+How often does this happen? 
+every time = reproducable
+
+Additional Information:
+- tested with mono 1.0.6 and 1.1.4
