Correct, both of these things - I’m using mcollective a lot (this is the vast bulk of the connections and traffic to the message queue).

Messages are published via STOMP to explicit rabbitmq exchanges, and these exchanges are federated to a couple of other brokers in a star distribution.

We seem to be seeing the most/fastest leaking on the machine which gets the most connections (and disconnections) - at the rate of a few a second (see end), however machines with less clients (and less ephemeral clients) are also leaking, just at a reduced rate.
