Hi,
Thanks for your suggestions. But problem is still exist.The problem is
mainly based on FreeBSD Stack because use heavy load.

If I try to do Audio/Video Streaming over FreeBSD(Using TCP) then my system
goes "out of mbuf clusters". After this FreeBSD is not able to reclaim the
memory for use. I have applied all  the patchs as per our discussion group
but I am hanging around the same issue.

My Server : eCos
My Client: Windows

Waiting for your views....

Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Vinayagam.M
