Now we assume it is a deadlock caused by some race conditions for some network (socket?) resources. But maye it is simply because the data is sometimes wrong? Imagine one service would send image data "worth 4 terrabytes" (because the "content size field" was wrongly set, or the height/width fields), so what would your main program do? Would it try to really create a QImage that large and hence be busy allocating virtual memory? That would be visible off course by its memory consumption which would grow and grow. Off course my guess totally does not explain why it would (seem to) work on some machines, and not on others (but that /could/ be a pure coincidence which would wrongly lead us to believe it must be a threading/deadlock problem).
