Project: mldonkey, a multi-networks file-sharing client
Submitted by: Joseph R. Kiniry

Category: Core
Severity: 5 - Average
Item Group: Memory leak
Resolution: None
Assigned to: None
Status: Open
Release: 2.00
Release: release-2-5-4
Platform Version: Linux
Binaries Origin: CVS / Self compiled
CPU type: None
Summary: Memory leak in mldonkey still exists and is quite bad.
Original Submission: I'm a bit surprised this has gone on as long as it has.
I see bug reports on bad leaks that go back almost 16 months.
I built the 2-5-4 release of mlnet with ocaml 3.06 (from RPM) on my RedHat 8.0
box. The software was built and run under a 2.4 kernel for some time, but
these days I run 2.6.
>From config.log:
configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/u
sr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-checking
--host=i386-redhat-linux --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit
gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)
After running mlnet for several days memory usage grows tremendously. The last
time I restarted mlnet after a long period it was using 700MB of *resident*
memory on my server. I share and download only a handful of files (<10 each).
My bandwidth usage is minimal (typically << 5Kb/s each way). All server
settings are standard; e.g., I do not connect to an abnormal number of servers.
I am running again now and generating a verbose log for you. I am going to
ride this bug until something gets fixed. It is not reasonable that this ugly
issue is still a problem, especially in software written in OCaml. I am happy
to build and test CVS branches and the like for you. I am also a good OCaml
programmer.

Dear Mr Spiralvoice,
I am greatly disappointed to see this memory leak issue go so far. This is a
showstopper - I am shutting down two instances of mldonkey and switching to
another program. Three friends of mine already did the same and I'm afraid
mldonkey is loosing popularity quite fast in a broader sense too.
I am a Java programmer and I've been watching these threads for some time now.
I've been experimenting with different versions without any improvement.
Unfortunately, I am not in a position to actively help. I would only like to
stress the importance that this bug needs fixing urgently (before any other) or
the entire project may come to a halt.
If this is of any help: the last version that "worked" for me was 2.5.4
(consumed 30 M after 10 days up on RH 8.0 with machine still not swapping). On
the same machine, 2.5.12 ate up entire RAM in less than a day.

well, i had severe issues with this, but i downloaded Spiral's 2.5.16f and it's
been running for 60 something hours straight.
no more upload slot problems either ;-)
however, now it seems to be consuming a big chink of memory and utilizing 99.9%
of the cpu (well, one of them...) hoping it's just compiling a big file or
something, but i've been staring at it for a few minutes now :-(
i can't get in with telnet. crap. i think i saw a post somewhere about the
cpu useage thing... any ideas?

There are some patches on Savannah which address upload slots problems but
users reported that these also sloved their memory problems.

My situation: P100, 48 Mb RAM, using 2.5-12. Self-compiled on RH8, enabled
Overnet and SoulSeek. With 4 files to download (and 30 shared) MLdonkey starts
with 9 Mb of memory and grows to about 15 Mb in 10 mins. This is reasonable:
servers are connected, peer lists populated, downloads started and all
functionality works. But after first 10 mins, memory is consumed at a constant
rate of approx. 2 Mb/h, without any changes in speed/peers/servers/files.

The aforementioned log is only 3.4MB (!) when bzipped, so if an mlnet developer
wants a copy, just drop me an email.

mlnet has now been running for ~28 hours. Exactly two files are being
downloaded (at ~2Kb/s), and five files are being uploaded (at ~21Kb/s). mlnet
is now using over 100Mb of resident memory:
kiniry 9368 0.9 9.8 107312 102420 pts/4 S Jan14 17:01 ./mlnet -stdout
Attached are a number of additional statistics gathered via the web interface.
The debug log for these 28 hrs is 285MB uncompressed, so I'm obviously not
attaching it. I'll keep it for now so that if any developers was me to grep
for specific subexpressions I can do so.
