+
+* bgp_community.[ch]: (community_lookup) New helper function to look
+ up a community list in the hash table.
+
+* bgp_routemap.c: A new community structure was being allocated for
+ every BGP update which matched a route map which set a community.
+ This behavior led to rapid growth in the memory consumed by bgpd.
+ Adding the communities to the hash table addresses the memory
+ growth, but may introduce a problem in modifying or deleting the
+ 'set community' statement in the route map.
