Summary

0003018: Master server leaks memory

Description

NETBUFFER_s does not destroy its buffer when deleted, but relies on its Free method being called. Master server's BanlistPacketSender does not do this. As a result, 1KiB of memory is leaked every time the master server sends the banlist to a server. Since there's hundreds of servers, this must tally up to hundreds of kilobytes lost quickly enough.

Note: I don't know how to actually test it. But this seems like a glaring problem and I can't see how this cannot be happening.

The master server as is locks up mysteriously and needs to be restarted all the time. Maybe this is why?

I noticed this by doing some refactor on the network classes and decided to make NETBUFFER_s have a destructor. I noticed that this makes every single Free() calls unnecessary and allows removal of a lot of code.
