Hi,

I am seeing a very serious memory leak issue with freeradius-1.1.6. The
memory usage of freeradius gone from 3386Byte to 64MB when i was trying to
connect 16 clients with roaming interval of 1 second. More Access-Requests
are coming and we keep saving those requests until cleanup_delay.

After my initial investigation in the souce code,  we keep cleaning the
requests only if the select() fails, which means no more request to handle.
But in my case the clients are keep sending the request i think the cached
request_list is not cleared properly or misses out some requests or
something happens i guess. I may be wrong too, so please let me know what
could be the root cause.

Awaiting for any earliest reply.

Thanks,
Nikitha
