I know that RH 8 had terrible xinetd problem to where it would bog down and
stop accepting inet connections.  I had to roll my own xinetd. RH's compile
didn't do the trick (I run a lot of xinetd stuff).  Other than that it's
working fine for me.

As far as memory leak, I haven't experienced that.  Do you get it while
running KDE?
