There is a memory leak in RealServer G2 which causes FreeBSD

A memory leak in a daemon ideally shouldn't cause the OS crash or
reboot... can someone give more details of this please?

Does the daemon/server run as root?

        or

Does the daemon/server trigger some kind of kernel problem which
causes the above?
