long run gstreamer stops working without message

[Thomas DEBESSE]

It's not a memory issue.

I encountered a memory leak in the past somewhere in Gstreamer code
but it is fixed and it had no effect on this problem. I never
encountered specific memory leak in alsa modules.

Currently, my pipepines run for hours without changing a single byte.
