Package: autofs
Version: 4.1.3+4.1.4beta2-10
Severity: normal

I've several autofs mounts on several systems, including removable media
mounts with one-second timeouts. Most have no timouts (autofs is just
being used for consistancy). The autofs processes with 1-second timeouts
grow very large after long periods of time (weeks) whether the mounts
are being used or not (e.g., a /mnt/cdrom mount on a system without a CD
drive). I've worked around by automatically restarting those mounts 
regularly, but this is inelegant :).

I've included the relevant auto.* files.
