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