alled PURIFYPLUS for detecting memory leaks. Perhaps I'll see if I can run it with the application and see if it shows up anything. Thanks, David -- From: "Kevin Regan" Sent: Monday, January 11, 2010 3:19 PM To: Subject: RE: memory

Re: memory growing when using SSL connections

Hi David et al, On reading the responses so far two new thoughts occur to me: 1. In view of Dr Henson's response, I wonder if removing the CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() call in your loop will fix the problem. Perhaps reusing the context structure after calling it may have the reverse effect.

Jeremy, I'm not sure if I've tried the EVP_cleanup() routine. I'll give it a shot. Thanks, David -- From: "Jeremy Hunt" Sent: Thursday, January 07, 2010 5:34 PM To: ; Subject: Re: memory growing when using SSL connec

Re: memory growing when using SSL connections

Hi David, After reading this [http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/downloads/publications/hsm/hsm_node21.html] , it occurs to me that you might need EVP_cleanup() too. You might consider his clean_up() routine in general, or at least consider his comments on it. I think it is true to say that for ever

Hi David, Off the top of my head I notice that you do not call this as part of the cleanup: SSL_CTX_free() [ http://www.openssl.org/docs/ssl/SSL_CTX_free.html# ] There is also this: [ http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html#PROG13 ] Regards, Jeremy David wrote: *[safeTgram (safetgram-in

Hi, I'm using tn3270 sessions running over SSL. I may have up to 124 sessions activated concurrently, although I plan to get up to 250 sessions at some point. Whenever the sessions are stopped and restarted, I notice intermittently that memory grows in multiples of 4K bytes. I'm running on
