Growing memory usage with multiple threads

[Praveen C]

Hello

I am using WorkStream in a code, and if I run with multiple threads, the memory usage grows continuously, as reported by "top".

This does not happen with single thread.

Can you give any tips on how to find the source of the problem ?

Thanks

Praveen,
I don't really have any thoughts on the matter. Nothing comes to mind.
What happens if you run the program under a memory profiler like
valgrind's massif? Does it show that the program is losing memory?

As always, if you could come up with as small a test case as possible,
that would be fantastic!

I am seeing this memory issue on a machine with

intel-tbb@2021.9.0 (memory usage grows continuously)

On another machine, I have

intel-tbb@2020.3 (fixed memory consumption)

Thanks for valgrind tip, I will try that.

best
