Hi Laurenz,

I'm not using ssl at the moment.
The thing is when the reachable leak is there is just grows. It is not constant. And at a given point the program will break.

I've ran the program with: valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes --log-file="_pg_test_debug.log" ./_pg_test_debug

View logfile here: http://pastebin.com/7rjBRbkD
SSL is mentioned in combination with pg objects

Your suggestion: sslmode=disable seems to have fix my issue..
Thanks!

I have to further investigate why PG is trying to use SSL when no option is given to use it. I have a vanilla install of the db and libpq.

Best,
Peter

You should run valgrind with --leak-check=full to see details.

I tried your program and I get "still reachable" only when SSL is enabled; all the memory is in
OpenSSL.  Dou you use SSL?

Without SSL (sslmode=disable) I get no "still reachable" memory.

I don't know of reachable memory is a problem, I'd suspect not.

Yours,
Laurenz Albe
