i don't know about freeswitch, but in 99% of cases when you see unbounded 
memory consumption in Lua, the culprit is a userdata that holds only a 
pointer to a much heavier resource.  in those cases the garbage collection 
don't have any hint that it really should begin collecting ASAP

in your case, it might be the DB connection.  are you sure it's being closed 
as many times as it's opened?
