I just attached a patch to fix memory leak in nfs-utils on this bug.
Same as bug=239536 fix went into nfs-utils-1.0.9-18.
Comment 4 Akira Tsukamoto 2007-06-08 02:19:09 UTC 
Is this patch going to be merged any time soon?
In our system we are mounting nearly 100 loopback devices and running 24 hours 
then the system required to reboot periodically to free up memory consumed by 
mountd.
