Hi Richard,

unfortunately I'm not aware of any leaks, if so I would have fixed them ;)
Perhaps you can find out in which circumstances the memory usage increases. Candidates are:
- search timer updates, should not matter how you trigger them, e.g. via svdrpsend.pl plug epgsearch upds
- timer conflict check
- simply navigating through the epgsearch menus in OSD

Using valgrind would also be a good way to search for the leaks. I've done this before too. But the leak may also depend on your personal usage of epgsearch (e.g. search timer settings, blacklists,...), and therefore did not appear in my valgrind checks.
Feel free to send me your VDR configuration (*.conf, epgsearch-config-dir, epg.data) for testing.

Cheers,
Christian

Hi,

[ Apologies for using this list - the epgsearch bugtracker is broken ]

I've been tracking down memory leaks on my server and narrowed down a significant leak in the epgsearch plugin
Approx 500 megs / week is lost - recovered by restarting vdr.  I'd like to reduce this obviously.
I updated from 0.9.24 to 0.9.25 beta 22 from git as a fix for a memory leak was mentioned in the changelog, but the leak is still about the same.  If I remove the plugin from the command line, there is no significant leak.  Attached plot shows.



Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Richard
