But is the memory freed at some point? E.g. when program shuts down? If it is not freed ever, then it is a memory leak. I'm interested in this, because either you have a memory leak or these is a bug in another application called cppcheck which claims that you have a memory leak. But if it is too difficult to find out, I won't bother you about this anymore as it is most likely a minor issue if even that. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
