Hello,
I need to investigate growing of used memory in VPP v20.01 process.
I found that valgrind si not suitable and read that VPP has it's own memory 
checker.
I tried python scripts GEF for gdb, it is not able to work with VPP process.

I see in release notes for some previous version that "leak-checker" was added. 
I looked at source code but only thing probably relating to this I found is
that define DLMALLOC which can be set in src/vppinfra/CMakeLists.txt with: 
option(VPP_USE_DLMALLOC "Use dlmalloc memory allocator." OFF)
But build failed with OFF setting, I successfully fixed some build errors, 
still not all but first I'd like to put question if this way can enable some 
command for checking memory leaks or am I wrong ?

How to setup leak-checker or other mechanism for investigating which code 
allocates pieces of memory on the heap ? what commands for investigating heap 
are available ?
Or where can I find some info about it ?

Peter
