Problem Description

beszel-agent on OpenWrt 25.12.5 router

It happens on every of my 4 routers: Linksys WRT1900AC, WRT1900ACS, WRT3200ACM, WRT32X, all mvebu cortex-a9.

After some days running beszel-agent, inspecting the top/htop command output, it shows the opt/beszel-agent taking up to 90-95% of mem, no matter how much memory the router has.

Rebooting the router solves the problem immediately, restarting the beszel-agent binary it does not (I created a cron task to restart it)

Expected Behavior

beszel-agent should take a constant low memory %, similar to when it is started after a reboot

Steps to Reproduce

start beszel-agent wait around 48h inspect top/htop command

OS / Architecture
