Summary:                    Saturated Handles, Socket Error
Description: 
We are running Asterisk SVN-branch-1.6.1-r251886 as our production server.

The traffic is not very much, max 20 simutaneous calls.

After every 2-3 weeks, we start getting socket error and calls are unable
to be made and eventually asterisk stops.

When we check file descriptors being used by Asterisk at this time, it
shows > 900, even if active channels are 0.

We think the issue is same as Issue # 0009235 that was solved for version
1.4

So, a similar patch may be needed for this version as well.

falves11: This has absolutely nothing to do with paying money. In fact, you
couldn't even get this issue prioritized higher by attempting to pay for it
to get prioritized higher. That is not how development resources work at
Digium. Issues are prioritized and assigned to developers on a monthly
basis, which is what triggers our releases.

If you haven't noticed, the issue https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=16774
has now been assigned to a
developer as the issue has made its way up the priority stack and the
resources have become available for the issue to be moved forward. In fact,
there is a now a patch available for testing.

With over 600 open issues at any given time, and approximately 10-20 new
issues opened every day, we're doing the best with the time and resources
that are available. Your constant meandering and ill-informed information
is useless at best, and detrimental at worst.
