For each message dropped during GENERICMESSAGE_INGRESS, memory is leaked.
As more memory is leaked, less memory is available for message processing, eventually leading to a core.
Usage of GENERICMESSAGE::message drop iRule command during GENERICMESSAGE_INGRESS event will leak memory.
Use MR::message drop during MR_INGRESS event instead to drop a message.
Usage of GENERICMESSAGE::message drop iRule command no longer leaks memory.
