Sorry to drag this away from Fossil and TH1 and S2, but I suggest running Tcl in Valgrind sometime. It's very, very good about memory usage. Aside from interim development versions, the only "leak" I've found is a performance optimization in which it doesn't bother free()ing everything on exit, much the same way Fossil doesn't clean up because it knows the operating system will do it faster and better. There's a compile-time option set via preprocessor to make it go back to the old behavior of tidying up all allocations at the end. This is very important to me because I frequently use Tcl for testing other code written in C and Fortran and such, and I need Valgrind to spot my errors without being mired in the test harness. http://wiki.tcl.tk/3840 - -- Andy Goth | <andrew.m.goth/at/gmail/dot/com> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJTyDQYAAoJELtYwrrr47Y4iBkH/j3cBBloLwFAxigrX8xhTydy I1c++agxS/veY0kdWoXqbnRYTluHXGlLy4JetWEOk3PmkgNa3EBZRsVtuUSRiqdl gpD1R0kP+7izLDlZuPKXWBjQNtdeAslSTcyuIFQVWTfHa1gFKT12GQ5oKuwo98yi Zl2uxhq6vgZK4cX3zg/S2SH2QA4avdMFJRxmBUXeBil6wqpr/oYKznD4kxtmTsEy zSysbC6Jz0l6dIbh+whAgNxhhf6QroItCwqCHtfeWBHkx05KCzUddXKizX72ggrz 0aIu1loCz+Kb5v7JHnG8n8lzySTtKIBb0idUW5t1WCTmgJHyPrdLDvgmYrzOgBY= =XwRk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
