Memory usage

[Vladimir Ralev]

Hi,

This is something I used that has worked for me without installing
additional software, it's like poor mans recon:

Replace message_queue_len with total_heap_size to check the heap as
well. It lists all processes by memory consumption, sorts them and
looks at the top offender.

In kazoo the biggest memory hog I've seen is the media file cache. If
you have a lot of TTS I guess it's possible that it will get to 50GB
at some point, but that's really a lot.

You would see it in the contents here
https://github.com/2600hz/kazoo/blob/master/core/kazoo_media/src/kz_media_tts_cache.erl

If you can't figure it out I would volunteer to check it out for you via remsh.
