May I suggest that atom provide a cut down version of 'third' which
only performs memory allocation/deallocation analysis would be an
advantage.
Many applications are becomming bigger and bigger, and thus more and
more time consuming to analys with the full 'third'. In my case the
application takes more than an hour to startup when instrumented.
The full 'third' would still be available when needed, but a smaller
faster check just for memory alloc/dealloc would encourage more use of
these tools.

| 300.1 | Use uninit_heap and uninit_stack options? | SMURF::JPW | John P Williams, DUDE, USG, 381-2079 | Mon Apr 28 1997 10:09 | 15 |
Hi, I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but if you create a file called ".third" and write the following lines into it before running atom, it will omit the "uninitialized memory" checks, leaving only the alloc/dealloc checks: uninit_heap no uninit_stack no See the third(5) man-page for more info. If you're looking for something else, or if this does not save any appreciable amount of time during instrumentation, feel free to enter a qar in the osf_qar database on gorge:: (or another reply or email). | |||||
