No, but a guess might benefit from more information such as which tool with which options, what errors are being suppressed, and what are the new errors that are appearing when adding suppression entries, ...
And of course, a (if possible small) compilable test case will for sure help the most. > > Also, the execution time expanded by 42%. This could be due to the > significantly larger suppression list. Also, would be nice to know the version of Valgrind you are using. Note that in 3.8.1, the suppression matching mechanism was optimised. In 3.9.0 (not yet released), the leak suppression entries can be made more precise (e.g. to only match definite leaks).
