Hi folks,

I notice that M2Crypto (a python wrap of OpenSSL) leaks (haemorrhages)
memory significantly and affects my long running app very badly.

Does anyone know of fixes to this problem?

Does anyone recommmend alternatives to M2C ? e.g pyopenssl.

I notice that Guido Van Rossum has flamed about this in the past but I
am not aware of any resolutions.

Thanks
Alan
