Travis Fails Memcache Memory Leak

[pcockwell]

Travis Build: https://travis-ci.org/DataDog/dd-agent/jobs/6192350
Test results in a gist: https://gist.github.com/pcockwell/5a8a5acc483f8cfe90eb

Investigation:

• Ran tests on Ubuntu 12.04 VM after reproducing Travis env as closely as possible.
• Used --pdb-failures to examine garbage collection info.
• Currently no failures (for memcache tests) on Ubuntu 12.04 VM or on local Mac OSX.

For now, this test will be skipped.

[remh]

is that just a test problem or is the memory leak still present ?

I can't tell. The test passes everywhere except Travis. It could be caused by the env/test suite... Given that the test passes everywhere else, I seem to think it's NOT an actual mem leak issue, but I could be wrong.
