  34 <PRE>&gt;<i>Services dont remove akills if any user matches to that ip tries to connect
  35 </I>&gt;<i>to server after time expiration of akill.
  36 </I>
  37      I can't reproduce this.  The expired autokill is in fact removed when
  38 a matching user connects.  Autokills, and in fact all types of data used in
  39 Servies, are not checked for expiration until they are actually accessed,
  40 whether by (for example) a user matching an autokill or a Services operator
  41 giving an AKILL LIST command.  This saves CPU time at the minor cost of
  42 keeping some data in memory slightly longer than absolutely necessary.
  43
  44 &gt;<i>But if a services admin/operator uses /operserv akill list or /operserv
  45 </I>&gt;<i>stats all commands. It removes all expired ones. It is good maybe. But think
  46 </I>&gt;<i>of dont using this commands for 3 days at a big network.
  47 </I>&gt;<i>
  48 </I>&gt;<i>The result is really a flood from services to ircops.
  49 </I>
  50      It was my intention that expired data get flushed when the databases
  51 are saved, but this doesn't seem to be happening with autokills.  I'll fix
  52 this for a future version; in the meantime, if this bothers you, turn off
  53 WallAutokillExpire.
