> From nifi dev mailing list:
> "On an earlier commit, I added the following to the root CMakeLists.txt:
>  
> # Enable asan in DEBUG for compatibility with civet
> set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG} -fsanitize=address")
> This was, as stated in the comment, to address a compatibility issue when compiling in DEBUG where civet would fail to link.
> On more recent dev toolchains (devtoolset-6 SCL CentOS/GCC 6.3), this results in extremely verbose and unhelpful output during test runs. While I am not opposed to using these tools to detect legitimate memory leaks, as it stands currently the setting is more of a detriment to the development process. I think that we should either only turn this on when we deliberately intend to analyze memory usage, or possibly create additional unit tests to detect memory leaks."
