Are there any such recommendated specs for an "ideal" valgrind running machine? Assuming this machine will only run valgrind and nothing else.
It varies somewhat by tool: memcheck, drd, massif, ... . In general, most important first: real RAM at least 2.5 times the total memory size of the processes being monitored at the same time, data+instruction cache as large as possible (*minimum* 6MB [consumer-grade Intel Core i5]), one real CPU (not hyperthreaded) per process being monitored at the same time, one real CPU for OS overhead, and then CPU speed as fast as possible. _______________________________________________ Valgrind-users mailing list Valgrind-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/valgrind-users
