[stunnel-users] Re: Memory usage in stunnel-5.63

Hi Roie,

Yes it is.  Not all of the allocated heap memory can be reclaimed due to fragmentation.  See https://www.design-reuse.com/articles/25090/dynamic-memory-allocation-fragme... for more details.

Best regards,     Mike

Hi,

I'm running stunnel 5.63 compiled in debian-bullseye inside docker, and i'm trying to understand the allocated memory behavior In a test i'm conducting i'm creating a load towards the stunnel server And the process CPU + memory consumption rises. Once i stop the traffic the CPU goes down but the memory doesn't. Is this expected ?

Many Thanks, Roie
