Hi,
Have you checked the internal load of opensips, by running the `ps` and
`get_statistics load:` MI cmds ?
I suspect some blocking I/O operation is blocking the OpenSIPS timer
processes, resulting in the reported warning logs.
Also, if possible (not sure in docker) you should run `opensips-cli -x
trap` to get an instant x-ray of what the opensips processes are doing,
maybe this will help spotting the problem.

Hi all,
I've been running OpenSIPS (v3.x) in a Docker container for the
past 1-2 years as a WebSocket (WSS) registrar handling SIP
registrations.
It has been stable until recently — for the past few weeks, I'm
seeing severe performance stalls.
• OpenSIPS suddenly stops responding to SIP REGISTER requests.
• ss -unap shows high Recv-Q values on the listening ports (UDP +
WSS).
• The log is flooded with warnings like:

• Killing the process or restarting the container sometimes does
not help immediately.
• CPU and memory usage inside Docker appear normal.
