 > The code looked like this in 0.3.3.7:

 Ah! So 0.3.3.x is end of life in 7 days. I would strongly suggest to use
 at least 0.3.4 :).

 It was backported in 0.3.3.8:

 {{{
   o Major bugfixes (directory authority, backport from 0.3.4.3-alpha):
     - Stop leaking memory on directory authorities when planning to
       vote. This bug was crashing authorities by exhausting their
       memory. Fixes bug 26435; bugfix on 0.3.3.6.
 }}}

 See #26435.
