[Valgrind-users] valgrinds stuck while checking memory leaks

2010-07-13 Thread Nicolas Rannou
Hello, I'm experimenting some issues using valgrind. I would like to perform a memory leaks checking in my application. I do: _ $ valgrind -v --leak-check=full --track-origins=yes ./bin/gofigure log.txt

Is your application multithreaded? Thread scheduling under valgrind is very different from running normally. AFAIK, only one thread runs at a time, which can both slow down threaded applications substantially and also increase the chances of hitting a deadlock bug in your code. -Dave On Jul
