Hi, So it starts out like this: > top - 11:02:19 up 16:48, 3 users, load average: 0.04, 0.01, 0.00

In ~1hr buff/cache used (probably buffers mostly) increased by (3795644-790828)KiB=3004816KiB So an average of about 900KiB/s I assume this only happens when streaming with ffmpeg? It does look like they are closely related if so, > And console output of the streaming as follows > > > > root@TESTING-FFMPEG:/var/www/html/hls/live/mobile/testing# ffmpeg -threads > 1 -i udp://231.1.1.108:1026 -c:v copy -c:a copy -f mpegts > /home/user/ffmpeg-4.2.2/Ajk_live_Telecast.m3u8 > Output #0, mpegts, to '/home/user/ffmpeg-4.2.2/Ajk_live_Telecast.m3u8': > Metadata: > encoder : Lavf58.29.100 > Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (High) ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B), yuv420p(top > first), 1920x1080 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], q=2-31, 25 fps, 50 tbr, 90k tbn, 90k > tbc > Stream #0:1: Audio: mp2 ([3][0][0][0] / 0x0003), 48000 Hz, stereo, > fltp, 128 kb/s > Stream mapping: > Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (copy) > Stream #0:1 -> #0:1 (copy) > > Stream #0:1 -> #0:1 (copy) > Press [q] to stop, [?] for help > frame= 447 fps=0.0 q=-1.0 size= 7680kB time=00:00:07.80 > bitrate=8059.7kbits/s speed=15.4x > frame= 477 fps=474 q=-1.0 size= 8448kB time=00:00:08.30 > bitrate=8332.0kbits/s speed=8.25x > frame= 1281 fps= 89 q=-1.0 size= 22784kB time=00:00:21.70 > bitrate=8598.8kbits/s speed=1.51x > frame= 1290 fps= 88 q=-1.0 Lsize= 23163kB time=00:00:21.85 > bitrate=8681.7kbits/s speed= 1.5x The stream bitrate reaches ~1000kB/s which is similar so it’s probably the disk buffer that’s taking up the memory. But if you look at the available memory, it only drops from 15408016 KiB to 15363132KiB, about 50MB. If you start another program that requires a lot of memory, that buffer would probably be cleared immediately. The other situation where you are downloading the stream and starting a dozen transcoding jobs is different, in that case that memory is taken. What I mean is this doesn’t seem out of the ordinary at all.
