What version of asterisk? Did you use any special build options to build
it?

What do you mean?

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        237124     231096       6028          0     35700      36992

This box aparantly has only 6028kb availble. However if you ignore
memory that the kernel temporarily uses for its own optimizations
(buffering and such) it actually has almost 78720 kb free.

To debug memory allocations, build asterisk with memory debugging.
Probably a lot less overhead than valgrind. Look for "astmm".
