Chris,
Thanks for clearing that up. That's a lot better than what you had thought.

Konstantin,
Interesting. So, this appears to be a new memory leak that has nothing to
do with rootless mode.
At this point I think we will need suggestions from others as to how we
be tedious.
Anybody got any suggestions?

In other words, it might not be able to follow NEW or MALLOC, because the
object format might be too different.
Try the mem_watch tool in the kde-cygwin cvs area

There is also this tool -
http://devel-home.kde.org/~sewardj/
Not sure if it can be used on Cygwin, but I think it might.
It depends on the glibc and this isn't ported to cygwin yet.

It was mentioned that the memory size increased when a new X window
(such as an xterm) is opened, but that it does not decrease when that
window is destroyed. This indicates one of a few things to me:
1) We are not freeing our window privates (directly or indirectly).
This seems plausible,

I ran XWin under Boundschecker with the following parameters: :0 -engine
1 -rootless -lesspointer
Note that I didn't recompile or modify XWin from its current distribution
version to do this.
After starting it, I ran another instance of Boundschecker and under this
one, I started WMAKER.

Hi all
I am using the cygwin + xfree combination for my X server.
I run the program for days on a W2k laptop and put the machine on stand by
every night. W2k and xfree are restarted quite infrequently (once every
2-4 weeks).
I have noticed in Task Manager that XWin process slowly but surely
Konstantin,
Are you using the ``-rootless'' command-line parameter? If so, the
developer of that feature mentioned that there was a memory leak and
that he was working on fixing it. If not, then we might need to look
into your problem as a previously unknown problem.
