MyBB Memory Leak?

[TerryRitchie]

@TerryRitchie - Often times I'll leave Firefox run for weeks at a time.

Well, I left the faucet on in the bathroom once so it flooded the whole floors and they kicked me out for it. Bastards! 

Seriously, you remind me of the Linuxboys who boasted that they hadn't switched off their computers for x months.

I do not understand that! No! But that's life! It's a burlesque.

Oh I've been using Windows 7 for so long now and know how to perfectly tweak it that I put those Linux fanbois to shame. I routinely go for many months before I reset my system. Heck, I can't even remember that last time my system locked up let alone a BSOD. I only reset when those mysterious svchost.exe files listed in Task Manager start getting too big for my comfort.

I built a Windows 7 system for my mother-in-law well over 10 years ago and it's still going strong running 24/7/365. I perform routine maintenance on it every few months for her. I've offered to upgrade her over the years but she refuses. She simply loves the stability of the system. To be fair she doesn't use it for games or anything taxing, just uploading documents to the State Dept now and them, email, and mild web browsing.

And to be fair to the Linux fanbois, having a system run for many months with no problems is a good thing for them, given that Linux is usually used as a server where downtime can be a huge problem.
