I could not see anything wrong here either. Some things which came to my
mind where:

- Does this also happen, if you do not call PromiscuousMode_Enter?
- Which user grows is /proc/slabinfo? (If this file is emply or does not
  exist, you may meed to recompile the kernel to use slab instead of
  sl[b-z]b)
- Which kernel version are you using? Have you tried different versions?
