[Freeswitch-users] freeswitch memory leakage.

[Aqs Younas]

Hi, Brian.

Its ok If vlc takes some ram, but freeswitch must release the ram when
there are no calls.
Is there any command that can make freeswitch release the ram without
restarting the freeswitch.

Like this linux command which makes linux release the cached ram.

free && sync && echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches && free1

Thanks
