Sergio Durigan Junior 2014-09-24 17:32:13 UTC Doc Text Cause: A specific function in the Python support on GDB leaked the reference to a buffer that was read from the program being debugged.

Consequence: In a memory-intensive scenario, GDB would leak a big amount of memory.

Fix: GDB now correctly frees the memory acquired.

Result: GDB does not overconsume memory when using Python scriptting on memory-intensive scenarios.
