Questions...<br><br>The test was on a grid or standalone opensim?<br><br>And the memory increases where? In opensim.exe, assetserver.exe...?<br><br>(Yes, noob questions, it's only for identifying the "guilty" application).<br>

This afternoon (with a bit of haxoring) I installed the mono heap-shot<br> profiler on the OSGrid plazas server in pursuit of current memory<br> leaks. heap-shot will take a dump while in operation when it receives a<br>
signal. More details on it can be found here.<br> <br> <a href="http://www.mono-project.com/HeapShot">http://www.mono-project.com/HeapShot</a><br> <br> Now that it's installed it's very easy to run, if anyone with access to<br>
the plazas wants to take further dumps.<br> <br> I started the profile on Wright Plaza with just me on it.<br> Interestingly, that was enough to cause memory to continuously grow.<br> This was associated with continuous requests for the same assets (which<br>
do not exist) on the console. This in itself, though bad, should not be<br> enough to cause the memory leak. I took several dumps, the smallest of<br> which (along with the log file) can be downloaded from<br> <br> <a href="http://opensimulator.org/dump/OpenSim-at-595mb-one-avatar-with-scripts-wright.zip">http://opensimulator.org/dump/OpenSim-at-595mb-one-avatar-with-scripts-wright.zip</a><br>
<br> On a very preliminary analysis of the dump, it looked like the major<br> problem is data building up in the outgoing texture packet queue. This<br> is why I created extra statistical information which prints out the<br>
number of packets in the different queue types for each agent (which can<br> be seen by typing 'show stats' on the console). Hopefully this should<br> reveal whether this is really where the issue is (I'm not yet convinced<br>
I'm interpreting the dump information correctly).<br> <br> I very probably won't have any time now to work on this until next week<br> - I thought I would make the data available for general interest and in<br> case anyone wanted to take a shot at it.<br>
