EventEmitter memory leak

[shobhitsinghal624]

I am seeing these a lot :

(node) warning: possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 11 listeners added. Use emitter.setMaxListeners() to increase limit.
Trace

Any ideas how to resolve the issue.

My bad. This doesn't look like a sails issue. For anyone who reaches here by mistake, this SO question gives a nice perspective on the problem - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18427485/node-js-request-memory-leaking

Closing the issue.
