On the basis of what you've said above I think this definitely sounds like a genuine bug and I'm thinking it could be related to discarded packets not being cleaned up.

for more information ,if i do a "pause"(timeshifting) on the stream , the memory continue to increase .perhaps it will better to do a temporary file to avoid saturating the memory when the network is of poor quality .
There is no timeshift/pause support in tvheadend. This will be client buffering.
Could you try latest git version and see if the problem is still there? There have been some changes to the streaming and hopefully your problem was fixed on its own.
hello
i do some stream about 30 minutes and it seems that memory is about 1,2% (192Mb of total memory) at the beginning to grow up to 8% in the first minutes and stabilizes after between 6 and 8% .it looks good .
it seems to me that the stream is more fluid with much less break of the stream.
When I cut the stream, the memory does not go down .Is this normal ?
I will do some longer tests with several stream .
thanks
PS .i see a problem with mediacontainer "passtrough" when I want abort recording => i get "transaction aborted" and tvheadend seems very slow .

I will try to figure out a way to increase performance. There is a pull request for this but it needs to be integrated with master in a proper way. It's not a quick fix so I need some time to think it through.
I think this is a duplicate of #1054, which I'm going to have a look at as I've now read the report and understand the problem.

I've applied a fix for #1054, so it might be worth checking whether or not this resolves your problem.

I'm going to, for now, assume the problem is fixed and close this issue. If the recent update does not resolve the problem we'll re-open.
