Summary:                    Memory leak on reload
Description: 
I've compiled a fresh version of Asterisk 1.6.2.7 under FreeBSD 8.0,
however on a "dialplan reload" or "module reload" the memory usage of
Asterisk jumps on average by around 100k in size. When I reduce the
hash_users, hash_peers and hash_dialogs sizes down from the defaults, the
memory jump is reduced to around 10-15k on average. I've set them to:

hash_users=150
hash_peers=50 
hash_dialogs=50 

I'm able to always reproduce this, i've tried removing modules to see if
there's something specific causing a leak, however to no avail.

Details are as follows:

FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p3 https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=0: Wed May 26
05:45:12 UTC 2010    
root at i386-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC 

Asterisk was compiled from source, the version in ports tree is too far
behind so we can't use this.

Happy to provide any other information required to assist.

Thanks.

I honestly don't see any memory leak in that output.  If there's any real
memory leak, it's either in one of the 3rd party libraries loaded or it's
just normal Linux memory allocation and nothing to be concerned with.
