Hello, following up as I got some time to look at the code and the cleanup was done only for state 1 (no replies), your rpc output shows it was state 2 (1xx replies). I pushed a patch for it with the commit:   - https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/commit/8fd514f9bb9e819fa6e5880dc229955… I will backport it to 5.2 and 5.1, but maybe you have a chance to test it before.

Hi Cyrille, As Alex pointed, if you could share more info it would help try to identify the cause. Here is one possible guess: Are you replicating dialogs vía DMQ by any chance? I have run into ghost dialogs in the past and they were narrowed down to being replicated via DMQ from another node, and that was caused in the first place because of a restart of kamailio or a sudden problem etc., no other node would own those dialogs so the timeout timers would not apply, and the restarted/problematic node has no way to know that he owned them in the first place, leaving them orphaned for ever blablabla...
