Summary0001868: Sphere has a major memory leak
DescriptionSphere has a major memory leak. When we start up our server it uses approximately 460 MB. This increases over time, dependent on user activity. We use a script that reboots the server when sphere reaches a memory usage of 730 MB. This happens
two times on a normal day.
Though on major events, when 30+ players are battling in the same crowded area the memory usage explodes and we lose 200-300 MB an hour.
So my guess is the memory leak is related to the networking code.

When I can help to track down the cause of the memory leak let me know.

This issue is related to the TooltipCache. Enabling the TooltipCache fixes the bug.

Managed to reproduce and fix this (with Torfo's help). I believe it normally should only occur if you have TooltipCache=0 and a script is returning 1 under @ClientToolTip/@ItemClientToolTip.

This bug still exists in #1401

I reproduced on a freshly installed sphere server only with sphere standard scripts
TooltipCache=0
FeatureAOS=0f

True, the leak isn't related to @ClientTooltip triggers at all, just TooltipCache. :)

Please check again in the next automated build (1402+).
