[Mono-dev] xbuild leaking?

2015-11-23 Thread David Evans 
Hi all,

We're using xbuild for a fairly large project now on linux with 4.0.4.1. We're 
noticing that the peak memory usage for the build seems to scale surprisingly 
fast with the total number of project references across the solution, as 
opposed to other measures. This isn't a big deal for us until we run out of 
physical memory and start swapping during the compile.

My guess: xbuild is hanging onto symbol tables for all project references - 
even those for projects has finished building - until the whole build is 
complete. We haven't noticed the same behavior building with Xamarin.

Does this ring a bell for anyone? I'd love to test out my theory and dig into 
that code (in particular how reference symbol tables are cached) but I wanted 
to check with folks here to see if this behavior might be intentional for some 
reason or if there is any known history about it.

Thx!

Monolite is platform-independent bytecode.

If you're getting a core dump, that comes from your mono runtime port.

In general, the low-hanging fruit for getting the runtime working are
the tests in mono/mini - compile them on a Linux box (cd mono/mini &&
make check), transfer them over, and get all of them (8 I think) working
without failures.

Monolite is platform-independent bytecode.

If you're getting a core dump, that comes from your mono runtime port.
