svn commit: samba r1203 - trunk/source/rpc_parse

New Revision: 1203

Modified:
   trunk/source/rpc_parse/parse_prs.c
Log:
This hopefully fixes our memory use when unmarshalling strings. The test case
was 'rpcclient -c "enumprinters 2"' with 4000 printers. At some point this
completely exploded in memory usage. For every string we talloc'ed memory up
to the end of the buffer. -> O(n^2).

This survives valgrind with this number of printers. It might also have
influence on winbind with a large number of users.

All those who dare to look at samba3 rpc code, could you please take a look? I
know this is a burden, but I would like comments ;-)))
