Perhaps I was not clear --

What if the client is trying to do something very slow with the monitors and is NOT consuming them at the same rate that the server is creating them.

This is the reason that rsrv for the EPICS database needs to start overwriting the last thing on the queue. It does not let the queue get over some specified size. If you just keep allocating memory and the client is not consuming the data fast enough, you use up your memory and eventually crash the system. At least I would expect this. It is likely a good idea to put something in to prevent this.

The same as for scalars, once they are sent or discarded the gdd will be
unreferenced by the CAS, but for arrays their gddDestructor will free
them.
