That version is absolutely ancient. It is possible you got a revision that contains a memory leak that has since been solved. Absolutely try to reproduce it on v1.2.stable, you'll probably find it just goes away.

If it *is* still happening the 2011-10 version will be too old to support (code will have changed too much) but with git head of v1.2.stable or master the devs will be able to investigate.

Hello Anthony,

I also see Freeswitch eating away on Memory. Right now we are in the process of installing a new FS Cluster and I will upgrade all our PBX's with the new stable branch and I will test with that again.

Our version of Freeswitch in production is: FreeSWITCH Version 1.0.head (git-4ceca18 2011-10-21 20-38-41 -0500)
This version slowly grows and grows, Over month the biggest grow I saw was about 4-5 Gigabyte of RES memory.

Before that we used a Freeswitch version from 2011-03 and that version grow to 273 Megabyte of memory usage and did not grow further.

In the future I will report my findings with the new stable branch, hopefully whatever caused the memory consumption is allready fixed.

Best regards,
Ray

Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] limit memory usage of freeswitch

It does not eat memory.... if you attack it with sipp you may cause the internal pools to swell up but normal usage only consumes memory based on usage.

Hi All,

According to my experineces and some info found on FS lists it is the normal behaviour that freeswitch eats up all of the available memory...
It's not a memory leak, but the standard behaviour of FS by design...
Correct me if I'm wrong...

Is there any way to limit FS memory usage???

I need another services to run on the FS box...

Thanks,
John
