[OpenSIPS-Users] Quest to find memory leak

Dear Razvan,

Below is the info on my processes
Process::  ID=0 PID=17351 Type=attendant
Process::  ID=1 PID=17352 Type=MI FIFO
Process::  ID=2 PID=17353 Type=MI Datagram
Process::  ID=3 PID=17354 Type=time_keeper
Process::  ID=4 PID=17355 Type=timer
Process::  ID=5 PID=17356 Type=SIP receiver udp:1.1.1.1:9094
Process::  ID=6 PID=17357 Type=SIP receiver udp:1.1.1.1:5060
Process::  ID=7 PID=17358 Type=SIP receiver udp:192.168.45.5:5064
Process::  ID=8 PID=17359 Type=Timer handler

1.1.1.1 is public IP (I changed). The decrease in memory I see is for
Process::  ID=7 PID=17358 mainly. My call flow is as following

- New Invite hits the opensips on 1.1.1.1:9094
- Apart from message validity checks I query DB to check if its a valid
user (Using local cache also there)
- Create dialog, Topology_hiding functions are called along with some avp
population
- Using dispatcher ds_select_domain Call sent to udp:192.168.45.2:7060
(using force socket). This 192.168.45.2:7060 is actually freeswitch
- Call again comes back to opensips on udp:192.168.45.5:5064
- New dialog is created and topology_hiding is called
- Drouting function do_routing is called which tries one gateway and fails


Dump i need to create with memlog=4 memdump=1 right?
