[Freeswitch-users] freeswitch HANGING (process exists but stops responding)

Hi Nino, I do experience very similar problem with latest stable: FS
1.2.12. Please let me know if you have managed resolving that.

So, eventually my FS stops responding, generating events, requesting
xml_curl_auth, etc. I can start fs_cli but when I do want to have "show
bridged_calls" and enter sh and press tab "sho" appears and fs_cli totally
hangs - i have falled back to 1.1beta1 where I do not saw that problem. But
I do not see "Create event dispatch thread" messages in the log.
In my setup I have quite busy installation with around 1000 active SIP
registrations with ~100 simultaneous calls, and ESL controller over the
network, so EVENT activity is quite intensive.

Regards, Anton.
