How large should a mogilefsd process become?

[komtanoo.pinpimai at livetext.com]

you can see what really eat memory are the replicate processes. It
happened to me when they replicate large files, ie. if a replicator
replicates a 500M file, the process eats 500M memory. You might want to
try this patch.
