heap info

[Richard Hedin]

Hi, Jan.

I'm trying to use valgrind --tool=massif.  Thanks for the idea.

I am working with a core file.  As far as I know, valgrind doesn't handle a core file.

I am running the application again under valgrind --tool=massif.  It's painfully slow, and I'm not sure I can get results.

Any techniques to work on a dead core file?  Some kind of post-mortem heap walker?



                   Regards,

                   Rick

Try: valgrind --tool=massif ./app

valgrind also has various options for the allocations reporting.
