I'm trying to make RTSP2Web type MSE work more correctly.
But I can't understand why ZMU processes multiply when the stream is restarted. WebSocket closes when the stream is stopped.
The number of ZMU processes is less than the number of stream restarts. Some ZMU processes consume a lot of CPU resources.
I can't understand why this happens and what is the pattern
This doesn't always happen, which blows my mind even more.
After refreshing the ZMU process page, things are back to normal for a while. Then it all repeats...

I think I figured out the reason.
I didn't send the "CMD_STOP" command when stopping the thread. I thought it was enough to just close the socket.
I'll keep watching.

zmu is used to get the current monitor status (instead of zms since we aren't using zms).

They shouldn't linger. They should only exist for a moment.

That's right. They don't stay for long, but there are a lot of such processes.
Many processes are called to one monitor at the same time (8 processes are visible in the screenshot) instead of one. Strange behavior.
The number of processes really doesn't increase if you call CMD_STOP.
