Hello,
We are implmeneting a SNMP agent using the NET SNMP library (C).
As part of the agent we need to handle the trap burst scenario (1250 traps
per second for 75 seconds). We have added a memory based queue that reads
SNMP from the netsnmp_session callback function and calls snmp_clone_pdu.
We see a very strange behavior. When there are around 100000 traps are
stored after calling snmp_clone_pdu, we see the process memory growth up
to 3 GB.
The memory does not come down even after clearing the traps.
Can somebody throw light on the net snmp memory handling?
Thanks
