memory leak about notmuch-vim HOT 5 CLOSED

I usually close and reopen this window, so I haven't seen that =/

from notmuch-vim.

How can I help find out what is bloated?

No idea. There may be some ruby options to do that. Also you can try to manually trigger garbage collection at some points (maybe even have a key binding) (GC.start I think), and set some variables to nil.

I spent a day trying to trigger memory leaks, and indeed there are some problems. Both of them can be fixed tracked down to issues in libnotmuch, and the Ruby bindings.

However, they can also be fixed in the notmuch-vim as well, so that's what I did and I pushed the result to the 'master' branch, please give it a try.

I also sent the patches for notmuch core, but I haven't heard anything back.

I'm marking this as closed, please comment if the problem remains.

There was a horrible bug in my previous attempt to get rid of the leaks, now it should be fixed and everything seems to work fine.
