<div dir="ltr">Hi.<div><br></div><div>I run bird 1.3.7 on a Debian VPS which peers with three IPv4 peers and three IPv6 peers. I have no data plane traffic, as I use these peers to run these two twitter accounts:</div><div><a href="https://twitter.com/bgp4_table">https://twitter.com/bgp4_table</a><br></div><div><a href="https://twitter.com/bgp6_table">https://twitter.com/bgp6_table</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>I needed more peers, so I moved to a new VPS with 2GB ram. The previous only had 1GB.</div><div><br></div><div>I have have 7 global IPv4 peers and 7 IPv6 peers. I'm running bird 1.4.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 - I've noticed that if I leave it for about an hour, and then log into birdc and type 'show route count' - bird will stall for about a minute giving no response. At that time, if I check netstat my Recv-Q rapidly increases on all my BGP sessions.</div><div><br></div><div>Now and then my BGP peers will also go down stating hold time expired. When I check at random times my Recv-Q is high on these sessions.</div><div><br></div><div>My older server with three peers has never had this issue. </div><div><br></div><div>Unfortunately bird's log is not showing anything. It only shows when a peer goes down due to the hold time expired.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Any ideas on what I can check?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>Darren</div></div>
