Great, I'll use it in the standby server and will test with SIPp in
order to determine the possible memory leak.

For this purpose I've created a bash script which does the job for me :)
I attach it.


In the production server (no mem debugging compiled)  I've created a
cron job which invokes the attached script every 5 minutes. Then with
other scritp I filter the PKG status from kamailio log file (rsyslog
logs it to a separate file) and get this output:

  Apr  8 13:55:01 kamailio[11770]:  used= 190936,
used+overhead=250696, free=16526520
  Apr  8 13:55:01 kamailio[11770]:  max used (+overhead)= 258464
  Apr  8 13:55:01 kamailio[11758]:  used= 191176,
used+overhead=250648, free=16526568
  Apr  8 13:55:01 kamailio[11758]:  max used (+overhead)= 257864
  Apr  8 14:05:01 kamailio[11770]:  used= 190936,
used+overhead=250696, free=16526520
  Apr  8 14:05:01 kamailio[11770]:  max used (+overhead)= 258464
  Apr  8 14:05:01 kamailio[11758]:  used= 191176,
used+overhead=250648, free=16526568
  Apr  8 14:05:01 kamailio[11758]:  max used (+overhead)= 257864


I cannot determine the memory leak cause with this, but I can
determine that some memory exists if the 'used' value is increased,
right?


Thanks a lot.
