Christos,

Here's a copy of the patch i put on this list back in May. It's against svn 
revision 804. I've been running that version since mid-May.

Good luck!
Woody Douglass

Indeed the instances could be reused, but that would imply
using a common mutex amongst the running threads for any
s7 operation (right?).
What I need in my case is truly parallel instances doing their own thing.
I'm glad to hear that Woody has some sort of a solution.
I hope it gets merged at some point, but I also hope for a solution
in the future that frees not most but *all* of s7's memory :)
Any chance I could see this code? By curiosity and to see if I could
slowly get some understanding of the inner workings of s7.

You're right that free(sc) does not free much.  Woody Douglass
sent me code to free most of s7's memory -- the main thing
is the heap -- but I haven't tackled merging it into my
version of s7 yet.  I think s7 instances can be reused --
just keep all your stuff in a sublet of rootlet, then
set it to #f, but it would be better to actually clean up.
