The register_timer(...) function is registering a callback function to 
be executed by timer process. But it is not a dedicated timer 
(application)process created for each call of register_timer(...)

This log message is harmless/useless as it is printed right now by 
db_text module. You can go in the source code and check yourself.

There might be an issue if you see available memory decreasing without 
proper reason, but we have to identify it and do a proper fix. Maybe 
there is a place where result pointer is set to NULL before freeing it.

I am extremely interested in fixing any eventual issue, however the 
proposed patch doesn't seem to be solve the root cause, because there 
should be no connection sharing between different application processes.

What version of kamailio are you using for testing? Which memory is 
decreasing, pkg or shm?
Cheers,
Daniel
