[j-nsp] Running out of mbufs

Hi, I upgraded to 7.4R4.3 and noticed two issues:
First in this release the "show system buffers" memory and mbuf slowly
increases over time, and never goes down. This was also monitored in
older realeses with the mbuf issue. Is this normal?
Second the issue, for which I asked in another post and said that in
7.4R2 or R3 doesn't appeared here. More specifically it is about an
lt- interface with different encapsulations on both ends, not going up
(exactly it is going down after attaching on side to an L2VPN
instance)

So what's the conclusion: if I want to have such an lt- interface, I
face the problem with mbufs; and if I don't want to face the problem
with mbufs, I face the problem with lt- interface down.
It seems to me that the two issues are connected.

I'm looking forward for an advice on this issues
