I’m sure the email app uses way more. It’s
Outlook after all. :)
So what you’re saying is the FS will continue to consume
memory for future use even if nothing is going on?
Thanks for the information and taking the time to address my
concerns.

freeswitch uses memory pooling
and so do some of it's individual components.
you can expect it to build up to several hundered megs of ram and save it for
reuse.
I bet the email app you are using to write this email is using more ram than
that chart depicts.

I don’t see any core

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@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
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.
