Lines: 9 To: eric@sarin.UUCP Neither the normal malloc nor the optional extra malloc included with 2.3 work. The optional one core-dumps on any program I've ever tried it with. The standard one causes excessive swapping, and sometimes claims it is out of memory when there's plenty of memory left. I posted a new malloc some time ago. To save space, I'm going to reply to this request by mail rather than by reposting it. The original posting was cc'ed to uport in hopes that they would include it in the next release. Any of the 2.3.1 beta testers want to comment whether malloc works now?
