you can take to identify the cause within your Asterisk/FreePBX setup.
Here's a general approach to help you find the module or component
responsible for the memory leak:
Monitor System Resources
Identify Suspected Modules
Enable Debugging and logging
Stress Testing and Isolating Modules
Update and Patch Modules
