Thx for the reply
Yes
Internal hash table diffenentelly stores info
But even it case of putting timeout to 0 it still grows in synthetic tests. So looks like it will grows alsways because of deletes entries but creates new and so on and so on...
So means it decrases "leak" but not fully

Is there some hidden function maybe to drop hast table o some ticky to do this? (we are using oru ow algorinthm that garanties to use same node in case of transaction)

This is probably the module-internal hash table that is used to make
sure that signalling relating to the same call is always sent to the
same rtpengine instance. This hash table does have a configurable
timeout value (`hash_table_tout`, defaults to 1 hour), which makes it
possible to still use it in a way you've described. However, from the
code it's my understanding that timed out hash table entries are only
deleted when they're encountered during processing, so it's not entirely
deterministic that old entries are always deleted after they've timed
out. The RPC command `rtpengine.get_hash_total` can be used to inspect
the current size of the hash table.

Cheers
