Thanks for the clarification.
I guess the memleak could be an issue when serving Markdown documents
repeatedly, as from within the "ui" or "server" web server loop, as in
doc_page():
Blob tail = BLOB_INITIALIZER;
markdown_to_html(&filebody, &title, &tail);
I cannot find any call to blob_reset() for neither filebody nor tail.
Obviously, this is not a big issue unless the Fossil web server
handles heavy traffic of big Markdown documents - which isn't its main
purpose anyway. :-)
