Are you perhaps using a (buggy) third-party module?  The code in Services
itself always ensures that autokill masks have an "@" in them.

Again, if you're using a third-party module and that module doesn't
properly free the memory it uses, Services can run out of memory.
I'm not currently aware of any memory leaks in Services itself.
