[asterisk-bugs] [JIRA] (ASTERISK-17752) (not so)large astDB key values cause asterisk to take up a lot of memory

----------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Bug

I tested this again on Asterisk 11. I was unable to reproduce the extraneous 'whitespace' character.

Asterisk pegging a CPU in this test case is *not* a bug. You've put a channel into an infinite loop where nothing causes it to stop hogging a processor. Ergo, it hogs a processor. This is the same with anything put into an infinite loop that continually processes data.

> I've been testing astDB limits in combination with asterisk.
> a simple dialplan :
> {noformat}
> exten = _X.,n(waiting),Set(DB(test/testing)=${DB(test/testing)}a)
> exten = _X.,n,goto(waiting)
> {noformat}
> made the value length grow up to max. 4096bytes causing asterisk to take up 84% memory on a machine with 4gb ram
> also in one of the test a whitespace came out of nowhere:
