Dear experts, We have a few routers running bird with BGP with route-reflector (full mesh) which has approximately 2K routes. Recently, the RAM usage of bird daemon increased to a few GBs, while normally the RAM usage is only a few MBs. The output of "show memory" showed using only a few KBs of memory, so it looks like some leak happened in the daemon. I wasn't able to find the cause of the event which led to the memory increase. The only lead I had is seeing a large amount of route changes to the routing table in short time. The output of "birdc show proto all all": global_routing_0_kernel Kernel global_routing_0 up 2022-05-01 Export updates: 748274310 0 0 --- 748274310 After the event stopped, the RAM usage of bird did not reduce for a few days until restarting bird daemon. Unfortunately I don't have additional logs or outputs from the time of the issue. However I was able to reproduce a similar scenario by adding a large amount of BGP routes at one burst. The route changes caused the RAM usage to increase to 500MB, and after removing the routes the RAM usage stayed 500MB and didn't reduce automatically until restart of bird daemon. I see a connection between the reproduction and the event that happened in our environment, therefore I hope that it can be enough information to investigate the memory leak. Any assistance will be highly appreciated. Many thanks!
