I just found out about something that might help. If you compiled against the GNU C library, you can set the environment variable MALLOC_CHECK_ to 1 to get malloc usage warnings printed to stderr, or set it to 2 to cause an abort() as soon as an error is detected. Assuming you're running in production, I'd start with 1 (making sure stderr is connected to something), then if any warnings occur but they aren't informative enough, switch to 2. I learned this here: http://www.gnu.org/manual/glibc-2.2.3/html_node/libc_32.html Shane _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
