I posted this the last time this subject came up (twice last year, I think), but I made this valgrind suppression file for my project:
http://www.vips.ecs.soton.ac.uk/development/nip2.supp Run with: $ export G_DEBUG=gc-friendly This makes Glib clear certain memory areas after using them, too. $ export G_SLICE=always-malloc This completely disables the magazine and slab allocator in Glib, and makes it use plain malloc()/free() instead. $ valgrind --suppressions=/home/john/nip2.supp \ --leak-check=yes \ myprog ... > myprog-vg.log 2>&1 With this, I get no reported leaks in my huge (200,000 lines of C) application on Ubuntu with current gtk+. There are some comments in the file explaining what the various bits do. No doubt I've made some errors :-( but perhaps it might be useful.
