Re: Use -V0 causes space to leak?

Hi

I have some long running (multi-gigabit, multi-cpu hour) programs and as part of trying to speed up I thought I would set the -V0 flag - when I did this there was a slow space leak that caused it to blow the heap.

Anyone out there have an explanation? Is there some garbage collection thing associated with something that -V0 suppresses?

If you mean -v0, maybe this is not a leak but rather an indefinite postponement of garbage collection because no results have been forced?
