Description Adrian Likins 2003-04-17 21:43:15 UTC 
Description of problem:

looks like results of IDXTLoad() never get
garbage collected... test script included
that shows it... just run that and it will
eat about 25 megs every iteration...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@sludge test]# rpm -q rpm
rpm-4.2-0.67


How reproducible:
pretty easy, see script...

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run test script...

Comment 2 Jeff Johnson 2003-04-18 15:16:26 UTC 
Heh, missed refcount on header while building tuple of tuples of headers.
IDTXglob too.

What's bogus (by design) is sucking every header out of a rpmdb into
a >40Mb data structure. Getting an iterator on top of the glop, or
adding cutoff time on retrieval, is gonna be needed.

Changinging bug to RFE ...
Comment 3 Jeff Johnson 2003-06-25 16:57:33 UTC 
refcount bug fixed, converting to RFE for iterator.
Comment 4 Jeff Johnson 2003-09-15 04:14:54 UTC 
Moot problem afaik.
