--- Comment #10 from Dr. Werner Fink
Well I wrote a simple test case that allocates then frees 1000 objects of 4096MB. I could see the same behaviour: the resource seemed not to be released by glibc. However strace(1) showed me that it was (by shrinking the heap by calling brk(2)).
Try to get the system swapping then the kernel will try harder to pick up the freed memory areas which then results in changes of virtual memory size and resident set size. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
