Hi,
I did a valgrind pass over dev-api-4. Results are good, i think the work
done in dev-api-3 & cvs_head helped a bit :-)
We had only 2 leaks:
- one zero bytes blocks
- and a constant one depending on resolution
After some code changes (xvid_malloc and xvid_free are good ideas to
force aligment but they do not help tracking the exact malloc for memory
leaks -- the reports is useless because the block is always allocated in
xvid_malloc ;-) i fixed these 2 small bugs.
Btw i'm fixing a last problem. As i reported (once upon a time) in
dev-api-3 (or cvs_head) we are probably doing MEAnalysis on unitialized
images. This bugs always occur in the first IFrame.
The new valgrind releases (1.9.x) help tracking cache usage and the
results are very good. Cache misses represent less than 0.01% in all
cases. This result surprises me, it seems to me it's too low. Is there a
tool windows devs could use to confirm that number ?
