>> Anyway, I'll try the 64-bit patch
I've tried both helgrinds (original one with 32-bit SVals and the one with
64-bit SVals).
The test program natively works about 4 seconds.
'top' output (sampled each 5 seconds and took the largest one).
32bit SVal:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU
Great!
Do you plan to checkin these or similar changes in future?
Maybe under #ifdef so that users do not suffer if they don't need too many
[TL]SETs?
While I think that something like 24 bits for [TL]SETs is a must for large
apps, it might not be enough.
We may need some garbage collection for [T

I already did that in Nov 07, but did not commit due to increase
in run time and space usage. The resulting patch is attached.
It allows up to 24 bits for lock- and thread-set IDs. I can't
remember now why I limited it to 24 bits --
