I'm in the process of rewriting TeacherTool and came across this anomaly.

1) from server do 
 ps --User anyusername -o  euser,pid,rss,comm --sort -comm
for a user who is NOT logged in
2) login user to a client.
3) repeat step 1
4) log user off.
5) repeat step 1
6) repeat step 2
7) repeat step 1
8) repeat step 4
9) repeat step 1
etc

Basically login and logoff the same user multiple times and you will
notice ssh-agent processes for that user grows each time. This can be
considered a type of memory leak in k12ltsp.
