Hi Damjan, 

Just tried the vcl tests and the debug version works just fine. The release 
images crash (at least in the test I’m looking at) doing:

memset (f, 0, sizeof (*f))

>From gdb: 

(gdb) x/i $pc
=> 0x7f15fcd329f4 <fs_try_alloc_fifo_batch+388>:        movaps 
%xmm0,0x1f0(%rdi,%rbp,1)
(gdb) i r rdi
rdi            0x204024780      8657192832
(gdb) i r rbp
rbp            0x100018 0x100018
(gdb) p f
$7 = (svm_fifo_t *) 0x204024780 <- the thing being memset

If my math is correct, the right hand operator is 0x1f0 + 0x204024780 + 
0x100018 = 0x204124988. Doesn’t look to be aligned. Could this be the issue?
