[Koha] Request for confirmation of zebra-daemon memory leak

I was the instigator of one of the previous queries on this matter (Koha 
3.00.06 on Ubuntu Server 10.10.)  We currently run Zebra as a cron job at 
one minute intervals:

*/1 * * * *  perl -I $PERL5LIB 
$KOHA_CRON_PATH/../migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -v -z > /dev/null

and do not start the daemon. Appears to work without problems.
