Severe memory leak ?

Open eLvErDe opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

Hello,

It seems these bindings are leaking a lot of memory. Walking through a two level tree with 87 000 files adds a never freed 60 Mbytes memory used to my application. It's getting worst then while running fopen (I'd say around 3Mbytes per 100 fopen).

Is that known ?

Regards, Adam.

This is most likely a problem with the underlying C library. It's likely a known issue. See https://github.com/gluster/libgfapi-python/issues/14
