friends-dispatcher allocates extreme amount of memory

[René Walendy]

While using my computer I suddenly found out that it was running out of memory due to friends-dispatcher consuming about 1.5g of RAM. CPU usage went up to 100% but I am not certain whether this is because of friends-dispatcher or because of the heavy swapping activity.
I assume the tool gets stuck in a loop, allocating more and more memory until the system runs out of free RAM.
