- I've inherited a very large C program that I am trying to maintain and
- expand, and I've come to the point where I HAVE to find out where the
- program's leaking memory. The program starts out with about 7MB virtual
- mem usage, 6MB real, and grows over the course of 6-8 hours to around 20MB
- virtual, 10MB real. The program uses straight malloc() and realloc() calls.
- I don't know where or how to start trying to track this down. Any help
- would be greatly appreciated. Email is preferred, but I'll try to watch
- the posts to this group as well. Much thanks in advance.
