Memory leak?

[fragtion]

When running CollectM for extended periods, memory consumed by the node.exe application increases continuously over time. In one case of a server that's been running for about 2 weeks, it is consuming nearly 2GB of RAM. What could possibly be causing this?

Hello,

I have spent some time tracking memory leaks. I found+fixed some. Not all, sorry.
Because I could not find all the memory leaks in a reasonable laps of time, I implemented CollectmTimeToLive option (see config/default.json file and the comments above).

If anybody can find and fix the problem with a patch, it would be great.

Thanks. Where can I find these fixes? are you referring to your collectw fork? I'm naturally a bit hesitant to try that, as it's over 2 years out of sync with this repo which has seemingly been updated a couple times since the fork

The fixes are already in Collectm. Search for leak in the ChangeLog : https://github.com/perfwatcher/collectm/blob/master/ChangeLog

FYI, Collectw is not a fork. There used to be 2 Collectw projects. One has nothing to do with Collectm. The other one was renamed Collectm (no fork, just renamed).

Again : this will not fix the memory leaks. If anybody can find and fix the problem with a patch, it would be great.
