Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: This is a very interesting patch, thank you. I've tested it on Mandriva 64-bit and it indeed fixes the free() issue on the XML workload. I see no regression on pybench, stringbench or json/pickle benchmarks.
I guess the final patch will have to guard the mallopt() call with some #ifdef? (also, I suppose a portable solution would have to call mmap() ourselves for allocation of arenas, but that would probably be a bit more involved) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11849> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
