Hello,
I'm dealing with possible resource leak in cygwin on Windows-7. I'm
running a script which repeatedly calls another script (every 5
seconds). After a while script ends with memory error. All my memory
seems to be eaten by Page Table entries and in the memory map I see a
lot of cygwin processes with 4 pages allocated (I can provide screenshot
if neccessary). Is this known issue?
Attached is cygcheck output without any modification.

without the scripts or a simplified version that exhibits the issue,
it is impossible to state if it is due to any cygwin programs or it is
due to https://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PEBCAK
Hello,
I can understand this. And it might definitely be PEBKAC. But what I see is
real and I do not thing I've screwed my scripts so much.
Attached is simple reproducer I was able to get from my scripts. If you will
test it you will have to change base url in fetchData.sh.
When I run this script for a while I see a lot of 'zombie' bash, sleep and
wget processes in RamMap (they do not show in task manager). I can provide
screenshot.
If that would matter I run this scrips from truecrypted disk.
I don't know if that matters but I don't think so. Running some
virus scanner (see https://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.using.bloda)
may be the culprit. FWIW, I can't reproduce the issue with the script
you provided. Process number (even hidden ones) and memory usage are
stable.
Hello,
thanks for pointer. Antivirus can be definitelly problem here. I will
try to reproduce this on computer without any antivirus.
