[comp.sys.acorn] Any got a malloc function with debugging facilities?

nms@ukc.ac.uk (N.M.Smith) (02/02/91)

Has anyone got a malloc functions that has debugging features?  The problem
I have is that there is a large piece of C code that does _a lot_ of mallocing
of complex structures.  The memory usage is so high that it doesn't run a 440.
I know that a least some of the structures are freed after use but I need to 
know if there is any other memory that the structure pointed to that is not
freed.  The guy who wrote it ran it on UNIX workstations so he didn't notice
the bug.  If some-one could send me a new malloc function I'd be very
grateful.  Also any other ideas why so much the Arch memory is used and / or
how to investigate would be appreciated.

		Thanks in anticipation of your help,
			Nick
