Hi Chris, Actually things are getting slightly worse, basically same test scenario (not the full blown app you keep on mentioning), but this time mutex locks are failing + the ye-olde massive memory leaks.
I have the mutex set to default mode, and after a few seconds of the test running mutexes locking unlocking, all of a sudden the mutexes stop locking, and basically report back EBUSY from pthread_mutex_lock. I know you weren't going to bother looking into it, but seeing as though you made a general request for testing updates relating to the new dll version, I thought it useful and relevant to put in my two cents. maybe in the future I wont even do that...

I made no effort to fix anything since, I'm not going to try to debug a 308K application for alleged memory leaks and, AFAIK, Corinna didn't look into this either. I guess I implied that previously but didn't make that clear. You can assume that unless someone mentions that they've fixed some kind of memory leak issue, there will be no improvement in the situation that you've noted so, there's not need to send "it still doesn't work" mail here. OTOH, if things get better or worse that is interesting and worthy of raising a flag. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
