ap_get_client_block memory hog

           Summary: ap_get_client_block memory hog
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.40
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: eider@bol.com.br


in 2.0.40, ap_get_client_block seems to be broken. If 
you use webdav and want to put a large file (200MB), you 
will se the web server going bigger and bigger, as if 
there is a memory leak. In fact, the brigade function allocates a chunk of 
memory for each block and doesn't deallocate it until the client drops 
connection. This is a unpleaseant feature for big files.

   I got the 2.0.39 one into the 2.0.40 http_protocol.c 
file and everything gots better.
