HI, Firstly I hope this is the right list as the enquiry I have I do not class as a bug due to my uncertainty about where the problem lies.
I have been using the C API for MySQL 2.22.32 on Linux 2.2.14 and I have noticed that my program was getting to an unmanageable size in memory, there is a steady increase in size. Admitedly I am playing with reasonable amounts of data ( repeated calls retreiving 2000+ rows) however I am using the mysql_free_result on every MYSQL_RES that I am using and I am still seeing the program incerase in size. Usually I would blame this on myself for forgeting to free some malloc'ed memory however after running an mtrace on the program it returns rather a lot of the following lines: 0x084ac688 0x1fe4 at /lib/libmysqlclient.so.10:(my_malloc+0x2a)[0x4002aa7a] 0x084ae670 0x1fe4 at /lib/libmysqlclient.so.10:(my_malloc+0x2a)[0x4002aa7a] 0x084b0658 0x1fe4 at /lib/libmysqlclient.so.10:(my_malloc+0x2a)[0x4002aa7a] 0x084b2640 0x1fe4 at /lib/libmysqlclient.so.10:(my_malloc+0x2a)[0x4002aa7a] which leads me to beleive that there maybe an issue with the my_malloc function in the client lib. Am I completely incorrect ? has anyone seen this before and if so how is it cured as my program is running out of memory within 5 mins of starting. thanks Iain Machine Spec: Athlon 800 (over clocked to 1Ghz) 300Mb RAM (ish) SuSE Linux 2.2.14 gcc V2.95.2 ld V2.9.5 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
