[OpenSER-Users] Increased heap size.

[Sergio Gutierrez]

Hi Bogdan.

We are still facing this issue in one of our production servers; we tried by
setting LD_PRELOAD environment variable in Solaris to use an alternative
memory allocation library, but we could not solve the problem.

Right now the timer process of openser is exhibing a heap of almos 3.8 GB of
physical memory.

What else would you suggest to try?

Best regards.

Sergio Gutiérrez.
