[jira] [Updated] (ETCH-176) Memory allocated on each service call not released until

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ETCH-176?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Thomas Marsh updated ETCH-176:
------------------------------

    Attachment: mutex_leak.patch

Note that the mutex lock on g_etch_main_pool_mutex may no longer be necessary. I have left it in to be on the safe side.

> Around 32 bytes are leaked on average for every service invocation in the C binding. It does not occur for every invocation, but a simple test on the helloworld example performing a tight loop over the say_hello method demonstrated this leak. The memory consumption is visible in the OS process monitor, and was verified using valgrind on Linux.
