I don't currently run any game servers on linux, but I know from experience that game servers in general may sometimes leak some memory over time, although your graph seems to indicate its leaking a lot very quick.
We reboot our game servers daily (at around 5am) in order to just avoid any memory leak issues, perhaps you should do the same (setup something to do it for you of course!). If you are running any game plugins etc, try uninstalling them first, they may be at fault. Also try reverting back to the stock standard srcds_run script to see if your changes were at fault.

Linux reserves all memory to its use so for example cmd top may show thata all memory is "used" but when the all memory is really on use (as shown with cmd free), the server first starts swap to disk and when swap (that's usually 2x the memory installed) runs out, shit hits the fan. Just kill the process to free memory and restart it. Its not that big deal to do once a week, or sooner, depending the count of the servers / memory on the machine. -ics Guillaume Parent kirjoitti: > What the heck? Of course it's a problem!
