Anyway, I reran the test and the situation has improved, but
there is still a leak.  With the same test and the same machine as
before, memory is now lost at about 1% in five minutes.  The good
news is that valgrind now reports only one place where the memory
being lost is allocated:

==23172== 20,015,576 (8,809,968 direct, 11,205,608 indirect) bytes in 12,658 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 119 of 119
==23172==    at 0x4005B65: operator new(unsigned) (vg_replace_malloc.c:163)
==23172==    by 0x408B4B7: Agentpp::RequestList::receive(int) (request.cpp:1398)
==23172==    by 0x8056A1B: main (agent.cpp:540)
==23172==
==23172== LEAK SUMMARY:
==23172==    definitely lost: 8,809,968 bytes in 12,658 blocks.
==23172==    indirectly lost: 11,205,608 bytes in 178,209 blocks.
==23172==      possibly lost: 17,304 bytes in 45 blocks.
==23172==    still reachable: 13,871 bytes in 287 blocks.

All other places with possible leaks may be false alarms or only
small amounts of memory that are allocated infrequently.
