[Tcl-Threads] thread::transfer and memory leak

[Oleg D. <ol...@vs...>]

I am developing project using Tcl + Thread (BitTorrent tracker). At first I 
tried to use model where main thread after accepting new connection (using 
socket -server) transfers connection socket to free thread using 
thread::transfer. But testing of this model reveals slow memory leak (about 
1Mb/minute with requests rate about 100 req/sec). Using Tcl memory debugging 
(Tcl and Thread built with --enable-symbols=mem) and memory command I found 
that memory leaks after each thread::transfer call. This observes on latest 
Tcl/Threads versions as well (tcl8.4.14 and thread2.6.5).

Is this a known issue ? Is thread::transfer requires some extra dealing with 
transferred filedescriptors before or after transfer ?
