[Freeswitch-dev] [BULK] Re: Memory Leak? - FreeSWITCH Version 1.0.4pre5

[Charles Boening]

I don't see any core files.  However, I talked with one of my other guys this evening and found out he put in a cron job that was supposed to kill FS and restart it every day at 3am.  I think there was something wrong with how he did it and FS wasn't restarting properly.  I've removed that job and we'll see how long we last.  I'm still concerned about the ever increasing memory usage though.  I would think that if it doesn't level off, eventually something has to give.

Here's what I have for a memory usage graph so far.  As you can see, memory usage is constantly climbing.  I wouldn't think this would be normal.  Since I updated to 1.0.4pre5, I've made a couple test calls to make sure the IVR was working correctly.  Other than that, the system hasn't been used since the update about 11 hours ago.

if it already crashed, you would already have core files now you could trace.
did you witness any crash or find any core files?

mention to the boss if he emails consulting at freeswitch.org<mailto:consulting at freeswitch.org> he could purchase a support contract from
FreeSWITCH Solutions and we can make sure his box is stable.

Brian,

Sounds good.  I'll keep an eye on it.

I appreciate the tips.  I'll see about joining the IRC channel.  :)

If you can please refer to the wiki for debugging procedures... I also
recommend you join us on IRC.  We run conference.freeswitch.org<http://conference.freeswitch.org> with
many participants in a conference all day long without any problems
and we usually keep it up to date every few days when we remember to
do so.  We do not see any memory leaks.

http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Reporting_Bugs

If freeswitch exits like you say it'll have a core file which you can
run gdb on and it will tell us why it crashed usually.
