Can anyone tell me if BleakHouse[1] is packaged anywhere on openSUSE? I note a commented-out define to enable it in the ruby spec file, and a note in the changelog from 2007-12-06 that support for building with bleak_house was added, but this requires the "ruby-bleakhouse" package, which doesn't seem to exist (hopefully I'm just missing something obvious).
I was planning on shipping with because the original patch had no significant overhead. but right before i wanted to enable the patch in factory upstream changed it so that the overhead became significant. nowadays you would need a paralle ruby installation for that. but i didnt package that yet.
Alternately, can anyone recommend any other good memory leak checkers?
memprof [1] comes to mind. but it doesnt work with external debugsymbols yet. :/ I asked upstream about it already but I havent seen anything about supporting that in the release notes so far. darix [1] http://blog.envylabs.com/2010/07/garbage-collection-the-ruby-heap/ this is a talk from the memprof developer for certain ways of debugging memory leaks with ruby. -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ruby+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ruby+help@opensuse.org
