Summary

The flood is using huge amount of virtual memory.

As soon, as it is started, the memory allocation keeps growing. After it grew to 10GB I turned it off. I then restarted, but flood immediately started allocating huge amounts of virtual memory again.

Steps to Reproduce

1. run the 4.8.2 deb build
2. have Chome Browser
3. have transmission 3.00
4. wait a minute
5. flood will start allocating gigabytes of memory, infinitely growing in size, and quick.
