Help :: high memory usage with FR 3.0.11 on RHEL66
Hi everyone, we're running FreeRadius 3.0.11 on RHEL6.6 We have all of this modules enabled: [PRO] [root@pv3il0510 mods-enabled]# ls -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 24 feb 22 2016 always -> ../mods-available/always lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 29 feb 22 2016 attr_filter -> ../mods-available/attr_filter lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 27 feb 22 2016 cache_eap -> ../mods-available/cache_eap lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 22 feb 22 2016 chap -> ../mods-available/chap lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 24 feb 22 2016 detail -> ../mods-available/detail lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 28 feb 22 2016 detail.log -> ../mods-available/detail.log lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 22 feb 22 2016 dhcp -> ../mods-available/dhcp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 24 feb 22 2016 digest -> ../mods-available/digest lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 33 feb 22 2016 dynamic_clients -> ../mods-available/dynamic_clients lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 21 feb 22 2016 eap -> ../mods-available/eap lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 22 feb 22 2016 echo -> ../mods-available/echo lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 22 feb 22 2016 exec -> ../mods-available/exec lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 28 feb 22 2016 expiration -> ../mods-available/expiration lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 22 feb 22 2016 expr -> ../mods-available/expr lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 23 feb 22 2016 files -> ../mods-available/files lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 feb 22 2016 ldap -> /etc/raddb/mods-available/ldap lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 25 feb 22 2016 linelog -> ../mods-available/linelog lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 27 feb 22 2016 logintime -> ../mods-available/logintime lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 24 feb 22 2016 mschap -> ../mods-available/mschap lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 27 feb 22 2016 ntlm_auth -> ../mods-available/ntlm_auth lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 21 feb 22 2016 pap -> ../mods-available/pap lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 24 feb 22 2016 passwd -> ../mods-available/passwd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 28 feb 22 2016 preprocess -> ../mods-available/preprocess lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 25 feb 22 2016 radutmp -> ../mods-available/radutmp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 23 feb 22 2016 realm -> ../mods-available/realm lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 27 feb 22 2016 replicate -> ../mods-available/replicate lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 21 feb 22 2016 soh -> ../mods-available/soh lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 26 feb 22 2016 sradutmp -> ../mods-available/sradutmp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 22 feb 22 2016 unix -> ../mods-available/unix lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 24 feb 22 2016 unpack -> ../mods-available/unpack lrwxrwxrwx 1 root radiusd 22 feb 22 2016 utf8 -> ../mods-available/utf8 [PRO] [root@pv3il0510 mods-enabled]# We validate with: EAP-TLS, PAP and PEAP. We have 2 hosts running the same configuration behind one F5 balancer. Requests go down to any host and the request is attended. This works OK. We are nearly processing 150k requests (accepted & rejected) on each node. But the issue we are showing is high memory usage. Hosts have 4GB RAM and 1vCPU (runs in VMware hosts) The machines are nearly idle all the time, but ram usage increase over the time....sometimes nearly 90% ... The question is, have anyone got in this issue with this version? Is there any known issue in this version for this problem? I have been searching through the changelog of the versions 'til 3.0.15 but I can't see anything clear about this. Thanx in advance! Kind regards, Mariano.

3.0.15 fixes many security related issues. You should really upgrade to that irrespective of memory leaks.
The question is, have anyone got in this issue with this version? Is there any known issue in this version for this problem? Well, the release notes for 3.0.12 show at least two memory leaks fixed. And lots of other issues fixed in the last 18 months as well.
The config for 3.0.15 is a drop-in replacement, so I'd put that on first and see if things improve. -- Matthew
Thank you very much Mathew, we will take a look at this. Regards, Mariano. 2017-08-17 16:48 GMT+02:00 Matthew Newton <mcn@freeradius.org>:
