you definitely have a leak. you want massif. so -massif option. then use massif-visualizer to look at the trace and you'll see it probably going "up and to the right". select a time point near the right/big end and start digging through the tree of allocations (most of the mem allocs are near the top). expand the trees for call traces. that there will begin to give an idea of what is going on. you also will have learned a new debugging technique :) -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- Carsten Haitzler - ras...@rasterman.com _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
