Hi, I am using syslog-ng 3.01 and I experience memory leak on SIGHUP. This
has been seen on a standard Fedora 10 system with syslog-ng 3.0.1 to
3.0.10. the same test leak also with 3.3.1.

My syslog-ng.conf file has no rules in it.

A simple bash script sending a SIGHUP to the syslog-ng process will leak
memory at a fast face.

#!/bin/bash

while true; do
    date
         # $1 is syslog-ng pid
         sudo /usr/bin/kill -1 $1
        done

Any idea about, that?

Thanks

Simon Gauthier
