I run a program that does some monitoring on a few Linux platforms mainly Redhat 6.1/6.2 and also on a Cobalt RaQ3. The code only uses malloc/free in one place and I have carefully checked that the memory is freed after each use. Now the memory size (as shown by top) only increases on the RaQ3 server. The binaries have been generated on a FreeBSD-4.2 system with the compatibility compilers, linkers and libraries and I have statically linked the executable to remove libc variations. The code shows no sign of memory leaks on other RH linux systems or FreeBSD (running as native code). I am wondering if there are any features/bugs associated with memory leaks on the RaQ3 servers. The application is doing file i/o (open/read/write) IPC via shared memory and semaphores, it uses sockets, gethostbyname and mmap. Any hints, suggestions etc would be most welcome. output of uname -a of the RaQ3 Linux localhost 2.2.16C14 #1 Fri Sep 29 17:22:06 PDT 2000 i586 unknown Cheers, Roger _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers
