| Our mud has has a memory leak bug for the last 2 years. The bug rears its head about once a month, and the sympom is that mob names get changed to: %N%J#ERNjk2j3 Or something similar.
Usually there's no other affect. I'm sure it's a memory leak, but tracking it down is a problem since it doesn't appear on a regular schedule.
Does anyone know of a free utility for Linux to help figure this one out. Maybe a memory profiler or something?
Suggestions apprecaited.

| | Have you tried valgrind? It can really help. Or gdb, and use breakpoints or watchpoints. |
