I've built OpenSIPS from latest SVN head (branch 1.6) as you said.

> After a couple of hours, when you see that the memory is high - you can either shutdown opensips or ask it to dump the memory by calling 'kill -SIGUSR1 lowest_pid' , where lowest_pid is the smallest pid when doing 'ps aux | grep opensips'. It will dump lots of info in the log file(this why is better to do this quite soon - maybe after 1-2 hours in the rhythm the memory increases for you). In the logs you will see all the chunks of memory and where they were allocated. Look from the end if there is a function repeated  many times. You can also send the part of the log with the dump to me ( not on the list, because it will be quite large).

Done.

SIGTERM:
