it defintely thinks those areas are leaks, but that might be because of how it was killed, not because it was actually leaked (in the sense of the pointer was lost) |

22:52 |
asciilifeform |
let's put it another way: |
22:52 |
asciilifeform |
there is absolutely no reason for bitcoind to ever use more than at most a few MB more than when it first boots. |
22:53 |
asciilifeform |
is there even any reason ever to keep more than one or two (second being, one that is in the process of load/verify) blocks in ram at one time |
22:54 |
decimation |
asciilifeform: it appears a big chunk of the memory in use is tied up in the CBlockIndex class |
22:55 |
asciilifeform |
decimation: that might be the bdb cache |
22:55 |

(see earlier link) |

23:25 |
asciilifeform |
just for bdb |
23:25 |
mircea_popescu |
i think it pre-allocates locks or something |
23:26 |
asciilifeform |
according to docs, this is not a hard necessity. |
23:26 |
mircea_popescu |
well no, just how it does it |
23:27 |
asciilifeform |
there is a hard-ram-bound option, presently unused, and entirely separate from the locks constant. see link in log. |

yes, point taken. but what do you call memory that might be a leak, or might not? |
23:50 |
asciilifeform |
decimation: you call it 'i need to instrument the thing in real time and find out' |
23:50 |

alternatively 'i need to fit the code in head' |

apparently in the yugoslav case it was because it was illegal to buy a foreign device above a certain dollar value - but you could buy the parts and assemble yourself |
