I built PowerDNS with fixed remote backend using the same commands as 
earlier.

This time the test is successful without program crash. But after a 
short time the process has used all available memory and swap.

Mem:   4063148k total,  4032560k used,    30588k free,      392k buffers
Swap:  1914872k total,  1437628k used,   477244k free,    10552k cached

   PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  SHR SWAP  RES S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
  9811 pdns      20   0 5462m 1204 1.6g 3.7g S  201 96.0  18:10.02 
pdns_server

It is seems like a memory leak.
