Description

See  http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/malloc_hook.3.html

We should consider using the above hooks to track qdrouterd memory usage.   For example the router could dump a report to the debugDumpFile on shutdown, including malloc/free tracing.

This should be enabled for the Debug build target.

 

Ideas/suggestions welcome!
