SYMPTOMS
========
After the client side of Remote Procedure Call (RPC) creates large number of
threads, makes an RPC, and exits, a memory leak occurs. The server side of the
RPC is not affected.
CAUSE
=====
When the client side of RPC thread disappears, the thread pointer in the TLS
storage is not released.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. A fix to
this problem is in development, but has not been regression-tested and may be
destabilizing in production environments. Microsoft does not recommend
implementing this fix at this time. Contact Microsoft Product Support Services
