I'll gladly test deploy soon and let's see. Evidence that it also happened when using Falco only for the k8s plugins suggests this is in the right area of the code base.

At the same time tons of servers do not show any memory leaks ... This is the puzzling part. It's nothing consistent or easy to find so to say.

There are conflicts; and i don't think this is that important to need custom code in the release branch.
