I recently ran into some hard to find memory leaks. The program only runs on Linux. The memory leaks are detected using a custom memory allocator (using an atomic counter for allocation/deallocation size). In single thread mode, the program terminated without leaking, but running in multithread mode resulted in 1.7 to 4 KB of leaked […]
