Re: XEmacs 21.4.17 on HP-UX 11.23/IA-64
Ar an naoiú lá de mí Eanair, scríobh Darryl Okahata:
[ The relocating-buffers feature doesn't seem to help -- my WAG
is that
some malloc(), possibly from alloc.c, often occurs after a buffer is
allocated, and that memory never gets free()'d (this is making me
think it's cons/extent/vector/etc.-related). Because of this, the
XEmacs process size just keeps on growing. ]
My experience is consistent with this; I’m using this XEmacs (21.4) with a
46M RSS size limit. I load VM and ERC and open mail folders serially, with
my inbox being 4.8M on disk. At some point a malloc necessary to load a mail
folder into a buffer will eventually fail; even though I don’t load any more
packages and am scrupulous about killing unused buffers, this is
unavoidable. There is a effective memory leak somewhere. I’m using the
relocating allocator too.
