Scary for me, the ignorant :-) ==3781== ERROR SUMMARY: 18 errors from 9 contexts (suppressed: 106 from 1) ==3781== malloc/free: in use at exit: 148,617,748 bytes in 4,027 blocks. ==3781== malloc/free: 6,481 allocs, 2,454 frees, 183,008,167 bytes allocated. ==3781== For counts of detected errors, rerun with: -v ==3781== searching for pointers to 4,027 not-freed blocks. ==3781== checked 258,234,212 bytes. ==3781== LEAK SUMMARY: ==3781== definitely lost: 72 bytes in 5 blocks. ==3781== indirectly lost: 120 bytes in 10 blocks. ==3781== possibly lost: 139,672,920 bytes in 2,504 blocks. ==3781== still reachable: 8,944,636 bytes in 1,508 blocks. ==3781== suppressed: 0 bytes in 0 blocks.

My idea was: Give vtmalloc a try (as freeing memory always is nice, we have lots of memory intense XML import stuff to do) - but as I've never used it before, i ran into this appealing "memcheck" option ... > As from our experience... if we leak (which is not unlikely) then > it is far from scary, as otherwise I'd already pull-out all my hair. > However, when looking in the mirror, I can say we are not leaking. There is no correlation, believe me: We ware not leaking also, but our hairs... :-) cu BE ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ naviserver-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/naviserver-devel
