Some users with very large numbers of connections have been facing extremely long malloc_trim() calls on reload that managed to trigger the watchdog! That's a bit counter-productive. It's even possible that some implementations are not perfectly reliable or that their trimming time grows quadratically with the memory used. Instead of constantly trying to work around these issues, let's offer an option to disable this mechanism, since nobody had been complaining in the past, and this was only meant to be an improvement. This should be backported to 2.4 where trimming on reload started to appear.
