Thx,

I noticed that your signature advertise a no-steam server. I consider this case closed unless other legal server admins can confirm the memory leak.

cmer · 07-01-2011 , 14:13 Re: MEMORY LEAK DETECTED

indicate there is no steam but the server is no steam.

It's just the name Jet forget to remove

**KyleS** · 07-01-2011 , 18:53 Re: MEMORY LEAK DETECTED

I'm having the exact same issue (Along with Random freezing). Are you running the latest patch?

rhelgeby · 07-01-2011 , 19:41 Re: MEMORY LEAK DETECTED

Then I need the output from "zr_version". Also a handle dump after a few map changes would be useful: "sm_dump_handles handledump.txt". Upload the file here so we can analyze it.

thank you for taking the time to find our problem

rhelgeby · 07-01-2011 , 20:27 Re: MEMORY LEAK DETECTED

Do another handle dump after letting the server running for a few maps. Then we can compare them.

cmer · 07-02-2011 , 09:01 Re: MEMORY LEAK DETECTED

Here is a new dump

rhelgeby · 07-02-2011 , 12:50 Re: MEMORY LEAK DETECTED

CellArrays were in identical amount. There were 15 more tries than the other one, and only three more timers.

Number of tries change along with numbers of players connected. I also checked the code to see if I found some obvious mistakes. Tries are only used in ZMarket (and its shopping list). A trie is created when a player connect, and destroyed when they disconnect.

I'm suspicious if this has something to do with players connecting and disconnecting. But this is just a random guess by me. If you have a busy server with many players and there is a leak in ZR then SM would detect it pretty fast.

What I find strange is why this wasn't reported before? ZR is used on more than 100 servers for the past 6 months. We haven't got a single report of memory leak bugs in a long time. As far as I know, we've fixed all those long time ago. Memory leaks isn't something that go by unnoticed, because the plugin is unloaded so the gameplay breaks.

KyleS use (as far as I know) some unknown/old revision from our old development branch and is probably missing some bug fixes we've released in the stable branch later.

I'd like some more people to confirm this if they see a memory leak in ZR.

TnTSCS · 07-02-2011 , 15:23 Re: MEMORY LEAK DETECTED

I wonder if this has anything to do with those "phantom" players that was a bug in the last update - supposedly fixed, but still present - I had one this morning
