[asterisk-dev] Memory leak issue

[Chirag Vaishnav]

Hi friends,

Sorry to disturb you again! As I have started load testing with Asterisk I 
am getting some problems so I am informing you guys about that.

I am generating calls from SIPP client to another SIPP (which is excepting 
calls) through asterisk with call rate 100 calls/sec. I hangup calls after 5 
second. So at any point of time asterisk has 500 concurrent calls. This 
process is going on..

In this case the memory consumed should be stable. Like for 500 calls it 
requires 15% memory then at any time it should be 15% only. But it keep 
increasing... so after some days it will consume your whole memory and you 
have to restart your asterisk.

I have found that lot of people have same kind of problem and the only 
solution for them is to restart asterisk after some days.(depending upon 
size of memory) Is there any solution for this problem??

when i hangup all the calls asterisk do not free all additional  memory it 
has consumed for calls. Like when I start asterisk its memory status is 0.6% 
( for 1 GB ram ) when i start doing calls after some time it reach to 8%. 
then I hangup all calls but the memory status is some where around 3% not 
the 0.6% and this ratio increase with time.
