Issue/Introduction

The process uxdqmsrv in the context of the remote physical queue where jobs from a logical queue are submitted, shows a very important memory leak (clearly visible when submitting several thousands of jobs).
As a result, the process eventually uses all memory of the System and crashes.

This is particularly problematic on AIX Nodes as this 32bit process can only use up to 256MB, then it crashes generating a core file that has a size of around 270MB.
