How did you verify this with the Tcl thread extension? I don't see the
leak:
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd` ./tclsh
% info patchlevel
8.4.5
% lappend auto_path /usr/lib/tcl8.4; package require Thread
2.6.1
% exec ps -p [pid] -o pid,vsz,rss,args
PID VSZ RSS COMMAND
23958 12704 1996 ./tclsh
% for {set i 0} {$i < 1000} {incr i} {
thread::join [thread::create -joinable {}]
}
% exec ps -p [pid] -o pid,vsz,rss,args
PID VSZ RSS COMMAND
23958 21192 2272 ./tclsh
Ah, looks like Tcl 8.4.5 doesn't have the leak. I just tested Tcl
8.4.9:
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd` ./tclsh
% info patchlevel
8.4.9
% lappend auto_path /usr/lib/tcl8.4; package require Thread
2.6.1
% exec ps -p [pid] -o pid,vsz,rss,args
PID VSZ RSS COMMAND
28800 12696 2004 ./tclsh
% for {set i 0} {$i < 1000} {incr i} {
thread::join [thread::create -joinable {}]
}
% exec ps -p [pid] -o pid,vsz,rss,args
PID VSZ RSS COMMAND
28800 48276 29440 ./tclsh
OK, time to binary search to figure out what Tcl version introduced this
leak. :-)
