Hi, I have noticed that when running DeepStream apps in Python on Jetson Xavier devices for a long duration, the app seems to run out of memory at some point (gives an ‘OOM error’) and shut down. Not sure if this has an impact, but the app is run with a fakesink and in a Docker container, the base image of which is pulled from deepstream-l4t:6.0-samples
I have tested to see which components of the pipeline seem to be the culprit(s) and have narrowed it down to the PGIE. Two main observations lead me to believe this:
a) increasing the interval of the pgie from 0 to 1 allows the app run for double the amount of frames as before (~500k frames vs ~1m frames) until OOM.
b) when I unlink the PGIE from the pipeline the app is able to run indefinitely.
Is there a known fix for the memory leak or is it perhaps fixed in one of the newer versions of DeepStream?
