Eggdrop 1.9.5 - Possible memory leak in botnet communication?

Open Mystery-X opened this issue 11 months ago • 10 comments

I've seen a steady increase in memory usages of my eggdrops since i've migrated from 1.8.4 to 1.9.5. Example of a bot : yesterday mem usage 143M today same bot 228M. From what I can see in the memory dump it looks like the bot is having things in it's memory that passed yesterday over it's botnet.

I've tried .rehash and .restart from the bots commandline bot but the memory usage stays the same. Only killing the bot from linux shell clears the memory.
