Coming to the memory usage, ac changes might be the reason behind the
mem increase(not a leak).  I have changed all u16 buffers to u32 and
so on.  The usage increase might look bigger when ac-full is used,
although with ac-single it should be pretty okay.  Btw you should see
much better perf(around 15%-20%).  How big's your ruleset btw?

 master for a bit! Might even try runmode=worker :)
