[omniORB] Nil Object References memory?

[Martin Trappel]

Hi!

In omniORB docs chapter 12.1 (dynamic loading and unloading): "... which 
is that normally nil object references are heap allocated, and only 
deallocated when the ORB is destroyed. ..."

Does that mean that a long running program that never shuts down the orb 
will 'leak' memory? Or is there just one nil object for each interface 
or something alike?

cheers,
Martin
