Re: [Chicken-users] The odd case of the channel egg's tests failures

[Ivan Raikov]

Attached is an even simpler test case that causes segmentation fault even when compiled with -O -d2 options but works fine when run under the interpreter.

Hi all,

    I also have been encountering some mysterious heap full errors and even segmentation faults when working with large data sets and some tree data structures or srfi-4 vectors. For example, the attached code does not include any FFI stuff, yet it causes segmentation faults when compiled with anything other than -O -d2 options. I will be happy to help write scripts to analyze memory layout logs.

I figured we could encourage Felix to do the internals bit and spit out
a log file that the rest of us can learn to make sense of, as a good
division of labour!
