Thanks. I do have a leak on UP here though; vmstat or any other command do not eat this memory (at least neither ps or top report any continuous growth of their vm space while running the test), so I would wildly guess that's a kernel-based leakage occurring somewhere in the procfs support. > > : > : > > Rus > > _______________________________________________ > Xenomai-help mailing list > [email protected] > https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/xenomai-help -- Philippe. _______________________________________________ Xenomai-help mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/xenomai-help
