I have been noticing all the email messages about excessive malloc

excessively causing memory leaks in sqlite version 3? And if there is,
is there a way to fix it the source code?
There are no memory leaks in SQLite version 3 that I am aware
of. The automated test suite makes an extensive search for
memory leaks using an instrumented version of malloc and reports
that there are none.
There are no serious bugs in SQLite version 3 that I am aware
of. The ORDER BY clause might cause more malloc()s to be done
than are strictly necessary. But on a system with a good
malloc implementation, that will normally go unnoticed.
Nevertheless, we will be fixing the problem.
