Hi Our application makes use of long-running calls with a lot of diaplan transfers to bridge them to other calls, put them on hold etc. We've noticed a slow down in performance (high CPU, audio dropped, delayed) after several hours. I can reproduce it with some dialplan that does 1000 transfers: <extension name="test_transfer"> <condition field="destination_number" expression="^test_transfer$"> <action application="set" data="max_forwards=9999"/> <action application="transfer" data="test_transfer_999"/> </condition> </extension> <extension name="test_transfer_0" continue="false"> <condition field="destination_number" expression="^test_transfer_0$"> <action application="hangup"/> </condition> </extension> <extension name="test_transfer_n"> <condition field="destination_number" expression="^test_transfer_(\d+)$"> <!--<action application="info"/>--> <action application="transfer" data="test_transfer_${expr $1-1}"/> </condition> </extension> and then originate user/1000 test_transfer XML blah On a Windows laptop (git head) it slows down to more than 1 sec per iteration after it gets past 800, on a bigger Linux server (FS 1.2.5.1) it gets a bit futher but not much. On a server with an old version (git-1086cba 2011-05-23 22-51-43 -0500) it zips through to the end with no slow down. If you put the info call in you can see that variable_transfer_history is growing, and I think this is the source of the problem - this variable is missing from the older version but the newer ones are apparently appending to it on each iteration which becomes a very expensive operation. I'll raise a Jira. Any suggestion for a workaround? (Apart from rewriting our dialplan!) David
