Memory Leak

[Stingzor]

Hello all, firstly i would like to say hello as i am new here. A quick search of the forum does not yield any results on my issue (or relevant ones anyway).

I am new to running a COD server but have been running CS, CZ, CSS, UT and BF2 Servers for many years (well just over 7 to be precise).

Running a windows 64bit OS (Quad core processor, 4gb RAM, OS stripped down to the minimum) i am finding that the COD 4 server just eats up memory with no players on the server. The server is started via meanloader (though the issue is the same when launched via a batch file) with the window minimized. The RAM usage just climbs and climbs even with no players on.

So my question is..

is there a known memory leak in COD4 or Punkbuster or is there another issue i am overlooking?

I run 3 games from 1 dedi box that is smaller than your specs and it runs fine so i dont think there is a memory leak issue with the game. I think you need to look elsewhere for the problem.

Yes there is a memory leak but it's cause is still up for debate. Check out this threat over at IW.com:
