No. The 10MB is my very rough estimate on his real malloced data not part
of the leak.

Comparing these, indeed, I can only conclude that the second one does *not*
have the leak. I.e. the worst (or most optimistic) leak is:
9184/895997*1024 = 10.5 bytes/request

Not even close to 36.
Are you certain the smaller server experiences the leak as well eventually?
