If you think
of some other solution or have some advices for this,
please comment.
This has to be done as add on to the memory manager via a module,
something similar to what rpc command pkg.stats does, using some
callbacks, to be sure it is not slowing down the core when this
feature is not wanted/enabled.
Perhaps an array with the shm and pkg counters, updated on callbacks
for *malloc/*realloc/*free, still *relying on module name stored in
the memory chunk structure at malloc time,* in order to decrease it
properly at free time. When coding the feature, it would be good to add it in
between #ifdef
... #endif to be able to do performance measurments and disable it
completely if has big impact. It has relevance for profiling and would
be useful to have, just to be sure is not slowing down a lot.
I shall keep that in
mind.
Thanks for your prompt response.
