You might want to upgrade to the current development release of CVS 1.12: it falls back to normal file I/O when mmap fails instead of erroring out. > I than ran CVS with valgrind, and it produced the following output for > checkout of a ~15 MB big CVS tree with 1539 files: [...] > The one problem that stands out here is the last one: >5MB allocated, > still reachable, but in a place that seems to make no sense.

However, the line numbers in your valgrind output don't match up with the line numbers in the official CVS 1.12.13 source, so either valgrind is reporting them incorrectly or you are running some version of CVS other than 1.12.13 (or a modified version of 1.12.13). Without knowing exactly what version you're running, it's hard to say anything about what's going on. -- Larry Jones Start tying the sheets together.
