Hi, I'm curious if anyone knows the purpose of the DELETE_ITEMS defines in the MySQL source tree. I'm guessing they were either put there by their memory leak checking software, or perhaps to bypass broken compilers? I see the defines in both 3.22.32's and 3.23.30-gamma's source trees. I'm on FreeBSD 3.2 if it matters. I'm also interested in hearing if anyone has tried compiling with these defines enabled? I'm asking because I'm trying to track down some memory leaks in 3.22.32, found one but it didn't help the situation significantly (I believe it only came up when a query was doing both a GROUP BY and an ORDER BY). As I wrote this e-mail, mysqld grew in size by about 100 megs (was 30, but I made some changes to the e-mail. Apparently it grows when it does sorting). - dpk --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
