Thanks for the reply.

I will try the latest version.
Just to make the case clearer, we're using tshark (configured with
--disable-wiresahrk). It's doing a live capture and exiting a Lua
Listener that writes some parts of the packet to a file. We'd like it to
keep running constantly; but we need to restart it frequently because it
runs out of memory.

Yes, that's what I thought you meant. As mentioned in that wiki, you can't do that because it's sure that tshark will eventually run out of memory.
