35 | Debugging:
|
---|
36 |
|
---|
37 | If you're running a memory checker (e.g. Purify) on DB, make sure that
|
---|
38 | you recompile it with "-DPURIFY" in the CFLAGS, first. By default,
|
---|
39 | allocated pages are not initialized by the DB code, and they will show
|
---|
40 | up as reads of uninitialized memory in the buffer write routines.
