Description Tshepang Lekhonkhobe 2008-05-03 19:26:19 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
svn r1263, meant to fix #509607 (introducing OR operation in search), introduced huge memory leaks in trackerd, easily visible when doing searchs resulting in a large number of results.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Search for word 'home' on TST



Actual results:
trackerd usage jumps > 2MB on every repeated search (Alt+F)

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
Yes

Unable to reproduce in r2356. Trackerd is using always the same amount of memory (using "top" and the numbers in /proc/{pid}/statm after 20 queries.

Closed as obsolete.
Comment 2 Martyn Russell 2010-05-17 13:33:59 UTC 
Moving "Indexer" component bugs to "General" since "Indexer" refers to the old 0.6 architecture
