Hi

I just compile mrouted 3.8.2 on the Linux router of
my net (Kernel 2.0.35) it just work fine routing multicast
between two networks plus a tunnel two a far network.
This only was for 10 minutes then the machine frozes, no log
messages, no panics, just a Out of Memory the router as an
AMD K6 200 CPU + 64 MB RAM + 128 MB swap.
I saw that when mrouted got up the memory of the system starts
to decay, but top reported that mrouted was using 0.7% of memory !!
When the memory used reach about 64MB (even having 128 MB more) the
machines stoped responding.
It looks like the kernel was having a leak, or not ?

I even tried mrouted 3.9b3, and Kernel 2.0.34 but same things happen.
Any suggestions would be apreciated.
