When does this happen?

IF When using Router.completion() with Bedrock provider, each request creates a new SSL connection that remains open, causing accumulated SSL objects and eventual OOM.

How others solved it

THEN Replace Router.completion() with litellm.completion() for Bedrock provider calls to reuse connections. If Router is required, ensure a persistent httpx client session is configured, but note this does not prevent the leak in current versions. The safest workaround is to use litellm.completion() directly.

# Instead of:
# router.completion(model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514", messages=[...])
# Use:
# litellm.completion(model="bedrock/us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-20250514-v1:0", messages=[...])
