What is leaking in scratchZone?

[Gadi ORON]

Hi,

I am working on locating a memory leak in a swarm simulation that grows
40k for every model it runs. Looking at the debug information of different
zones I was surprised to see that scratchZone was growing bigger with
every model executed, as you can see from the following debug info:

====
0x80a1960: ListIndex_linked, display name: ListIndex_linked
0x80a8120: ListIndex_linked, display name: ListIndex_linked
0x80a83b0: ListIndex_mlinks, display name: ListIndex_mlinks
====
0x80a1960: ListIndex_linked, display name: ListIndex_linked
0x80a8120: ListIndex_linked, display name: ListIndex_linked
0x80a73c0: ListIndex_linked, display name: ListIndex_linked
0x80a6fc8: ListIndex_mlinks, display name: ListIndex_mlinks
====
0x80a1960: ListIndex_linked, display name: ListIndex_linked
0x80a8120: ListIndex_linked, display name: ListIndex_linked
0x80a73c0: ListIndex_linked, display name: ListIndex_linked
0x813c468: ListIndex_linked, display name: ListIndex_linked
0x80a6fc8: ListIndex_mlinks, display name: ListIndex_mlinks

I am surprised since I NEVER use scratchZone in my code, so it
must be some internal of swarm that does it.

Does anyone have an idea what can it be or how can I have more info about
those indexes?

All the best.
