Bug #13846

Updated by parhs (Coding Gorilla) about 7 years ago

On openBSD 5.9/6.1 5.9 running this code causes RSS memory to increase without limit. This does not happen in ubuntu or other linux. 

 ~~~ ruby 
 loop do 
   thr = Thread.new { puts "thread test" } 
   thr.join 
   GC.start 
 end 

 ~~~ 
 This is related to other things too, like when calling Open3.* , virtually everything that is using threads... 
 I have attached a screenshot with RSS memory plot I did.
