Thank you.
I want to ask, is it planned? Is it the future time to know? Is there work? I know you do not support.

Not at this time.

Already answered ...... Merlin does not and will never support any DSL models.

Because I am having an issue with OpenVPN client (posted here), I installed this beta to see whether it makes a difference. It does not. The issue, possibly bug, is still there, as it was in the previous version.

Apart from that I have nothing to complain. Thank you Merlin!

If it's just cached/buffers growing (in the output of "free" after ssh-ing into the router) then sure it's not a problem... but the memory management feature is usually enabled (IIRC) by default and that is constantly trying to free those caches... if those aren't what's growing, but the free space continues to drop (or utlization grows) then it's not a case of linux DTRT, but a clear leak somewhere.

I've mentioned this before, but I'll show it again... run "grep VmRSS /proc/*/status|sort -k2 |tail" and see which process is at the end of the list, in /proc/$pid/status... then "ps |grep $pid" for the $pid and see which it is... in my case, it's the httpd process that's now using 22+Mb:

admin@RT-AC68U-77D8:/tmp/home/root# grep VmRSS /proc/*/status|sort -k2 |tail -1
/proc/484/status:VmRSS: 23248 kB
admin@RT-AC68U-77D8:/tmp/home/root# ps|grep 484|grep -v grep
484 admin 25848 S httpd -i br0
admin@RT-AC68U-77D8:/tmp/home/root#

That's evidence of a leak, IMO.

My httpd process continues to grow as long as I am logged onto the GUI. If I leave the GUI alone, then I'm fine. If I'm in the GUI long enough and the httpd process grows too large, then the router becomes unresponsive until I restart httpd via SHH (then all is well again)...assuming I'm able to SSH in, which if I wait too long, I can't.

can´t wait till authy or another 2factor token comes to merlin, that will end all the problems with logins
