Comment 4 for bug 1005642

It's been 4 weeks since Michael's fix for this was merged into trunk. Any chance this bug report could be updated?

Even better, could an SRU be made?

1. It looks like the fix could be cherry-picked easily from trunk

2. The impact on users is significant:
      - serious performance degradation on low-end systems
      - potential security implications of dumping memory to a disk file
