Have we established whether the lines are disappearing from the flat file or the aliases database or both? Does the timestamp change on the flat file? Does anybody cut/paste from a Microsoft Windows file?

Linux Kernels 2.6.16 and up provide a way to instruct the kernel to drop the page cache, inode and dentry caches on command. This tip can help free Linux memory without a reboot.
Note: This is a non-destructive operation. Dirty objects are not freeable, hence; you must run sync beforehand.

nidump
NIDUMP(8) System Manager's Manual NIDUMP(8)
NAME
nidump - extract text or flat-file-format data from NetInfo
SYNOPSIS
nidump [ -t ] { -r directory | format } domain
DESCRIPTION
nidump reads the specified NetInfo domain and dumps a portion of its contents to standard output. When a flat-file administration file
format is specified, nidump provides output using the syntax of the corresponding flat file. The allowed values for format are aliases,
bootparams, bootptab, exports, fstab, group, hosts, networks, passwd, printcap, protocols, rpc, and services.
If the -r option is used, the first argument is interpreted as a NetInfo directory path, and its contents are dumped in a generic NetInfo
format.
OPTIONS
-t Interpret the domain as a tagged domain. For example, "trotter/network" refers to the database tagged "network" on the machine
"trotter". The machine name can be an actual name or an IP address.
-r Dump the specified directory in "raw" format. Directories are delimited by curly braces, and properties within a directory are
listed in the form "property = value;". Parentheses introduce a comma-separated list of items. The special property name CHILDREN
is used to hold a directory's children, if any are present. Spacing and line breaks are significant only within double quotes,
which may be used to protect any names that might contain metacharacters.
EXAMPLES
"nidump hosts ." dumps a hosts file from the local NetInfo domain.
"nidump -r /locations /" dumps the /locations directory of the root domain.
"nidump -t -r /name=users/uid=530 trotter/network" dumps the directory for the user whose UID is 530.
