[Serusers] "Out of Memory" errors

[Jiri Kuthan]

Darren,

thank you for the report. Which SER version are you using?

What we need you to do is to recompile SER from sources in
debug mode, set memlog<debug and resend the memory report.
(In debug mode, the report identifies the fragments which
is what we need to see.)

Thank you,

-jiri

Unfortunately the problem exists regardless of the OS.  When we start SER, it usually works fine for about 5 mins and then it starts giving the errors.
