First, libzmq does not leak memory, that is certain. Second, your application can leak memory if it does not e.g. close messages after processing them. But then you would see a steady climb ending in out-of-memory. What is plausible is that the shown memory usage is not in fact allocated memory, but reserved memory. You can test this trivially. -Pieter _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list zeromq-dev@lists.zeromq.org http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
