[Kamailio-Users] Trying to compile openser 1.3.3 without PKG_MALLOC support

[toly]

Hi Henning,

We are running the test:

hammer->sbc(asterisk 1.4)->openser1.3.3->mediaserver(heavily modified
asterisk)

It is production environment.

call rate is steady 4 cps.

Proxy is 2 dual cores 2.5Ghz  with  4G of ram

Initially openser was compiled with private memory size of 4M.
After few days privated memory was heavily fragmented and proxy was running
out of memory.
Then I've compiled with 8M of ram.
It prolonged more but with the same result, which made me very nervous  and
PKG_MALLOC was out of the question.

Without PKG_MALLOC:

There were few runs for few days, the last one since last friday still
running.
No instabilities on proxy, no problems at all. Performance wise I have not
notice any difference. It may be subjective, I'd say cpu may be higher (%0.1
sometimes) but again it's subjective and I'm running ngrep logging via
syslog_ng and the proxy logging done via syslog_ng, configured (syslog_ng)
to send the output to the syslog_ng server and pumping all huge output via
syslog_ng may contribute to the CPU.

BTW, in main.c when opens syslog, there is the thing which may be qualified
as bug. I you use standard syslog then there is no problem. With syslog_ng,
there is the problem: it creates 2 log files and I've fixed main.c, by the
code it writes in syslog, and then when daemonized opens syslog.

In turn, I'd like to ask the question about ngrep. I'm using ngrep-1-45.
When running on proxy I see duplicate message. When running not on proxy -
no dups.
My hunch is that it's recording all stuff from on_reply_route and
loose_route?
Can anybody enlighten this subject.

Regards,
Toly
