Nope, no swapping...

Thanks.
Jonas.

Linux has a tendency to keep RAM filled up with any recently accessed progarm. To keep programs access fast enough, it never removes something from the memory, only replaces it, in case some program has more frequent access than the one already present in ram.

If your server isn't swapping.. things are okay.

    Hello,

    I notice that at the end of the day, after about 4000 calls have
    passed my Asterisk-system, that the use of memory is very high and
    stays that way untill a restart of Asterisk or a reboot of the server.

    This is the situation at the end of the day :

    [root@sp asterisk]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 3923 1931 1992 0 268 1308
    -/+ buffers/cache:        353       3569
    Swap:         4031          0       4031

    So total of 3923MB, where 1992MBis used and 1931MBstill free.

    This memory never decreases and increases with every call that
    passes my Asterisk system. After some more calls :

    [root@sp asterisk]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 3923 1934 1989 0 270 1309
    -/+ buffers/cache:        353       3569
    Swap:         4031          0       4031

    So total of 3923MB, where 1934MBis used and 1989MBstill free.

    As I said, only a restart of Asterisk or reboot of the server can
    decrease this value :

    [root@sp asterisk]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 3923 974 2948 0 150 524
    -/+ buffers/cache:        299       3624
    Swap:         4031          0       4031

    So total of 3923 MB, where 974 MB is used and 2948 MB still free.


    So why does this memory usage only decrease with a restart ? What
    keeps asterisk stored in the RAM-memory ? Even if there are 0
    calls, the memory does not decrease.



    Kind regards,
    Jonas
