Re: Memory Issues in Octave

[Rik]

Dmitri,

Why don't you file a bug report so you can attach these long logs.

Also, I built a version of Octave with the address sanitizer enabled and
then ran

run-octave -f --no-gui-libs --eval 'exit' | & tee leak.base.log
run-octave -f --no-gui-libs --eval 'graphics_toolkit gnuplot; plot (1:3);
exit' | & tee leak.gnuplot.log

The results were

SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: 204896 byte(s) leaked in 3198 allocation(s).
SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: 205184 byte(s) leaked in 3200 allocation(s).

So there does seem to be a problem.
