                <div>Hi, users<br>
                  <br>
                </div>
                We are using 6 freeswitch instances, 5 freeswitch
                instances for playing streams with mod_vlc. After 3 to 4
                for days,  we see these (5) freeswitch taking more than
                3gb of momory and even though calls are not more than
                25. <br>
                <br>
              </div>
              Usually, some calls stay for more than 2 to 3 hours on
              some freeswitch.  Everytime we have to restart the
              freeswitch to release the captured memory.<br>
              <br>
            </div>
            But is believed, freeswitch must release the momory when
            there are no calls. But freeswitch still keeps captured
            memory.<br>
          </div>
          <div><br>
            I have attactted the top command result along with this
            email. <br>
          </div>
          Willing to perform any test if it helps tackle the problem. <br>
          <br>
        </div>
        Thanks for your help.<br>
