Hi all,

I did a test about run a bash scriplt never quit,but met a memory usage
issue that cause used memory continuous increase.
This issue was present in bash-3.2.x, bash-4.0.x, bash-4.1.x, bash-4.2.x,
bash-4.3.x. However, This issue was disappeared in bash-4.4.0, I can't trace
which patch fixed the issue or which new feature was introduced in
bash-4.4.0.

Here is bash script:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

logger "Started testing"
while(true);do 
 while (true); do 
   ls > /dev/null 
 done
done
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@localhost:/root> cat /proc/767/smaps |grep -A10 heap
01ba5000-01be8000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0

Could someone help to tell me which part of changes in bash-4.4.0, that
would be give me a direction backport code changes from bash-4.4 to
bash-3.2.x and bash-4.3.x.

Thanks,
Chen.
