The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 1558 Logged by: Cade Cairns Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.0.1 Operating system: MacOSX 10.3.8 Description: memory leak in libpq connectDBStart() Details:
The leak occurs when libpq can not establish a connection to the database server, in my case when it is not running. I believe that when a caller calls PQreset() or PQresetStart(), the subsequent call to connectDBStart() clobbers the previous value of addrlist in the PGconn. Presumably, closePGconn() should be destroying this value. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
