Bob Hansen commented on HDFS-9448:
----------------------------------

Thanks, [~aw].  I was curious if valgrind was already included and was waiting 
for a run from Jenkins to check the environment.

The libhdfspp library is especially prone to use-after-free errors, so there is 
great value in making sure all the tests run under valgrind.  I can tweak the 
makefile to make it opt-in, and we can discuss the relative value of including 
valgrind in the docker files.

Does that seem like a sensible approach?
