Tests by @atrayano found that at high resolution using jemalloc really seemed to help with the memory usage. Indeed, it seems to be true at all resolutions.

For example, at C24 it seems to go from 23% to 18%. At C720, I ran three runs each with and without using jemalloc and:

joined_memory_usage

The higher lines are the 'stock' runs and the lower are 'jemalloc'.

Adding this support to GEOS is not hard at all and I'll use this as a meta-issue to track PRs.

But I suppose the question (as both @tclune and @atrayano have thought as well): Is this "real"? Or are we perhaps not tracking the right thing?

And then does it work at NAS?

  • macOS Laptop

Trickle Tests

  • Does it work as expected without a jemalloc installed (i.e., only cmake and app changes)?
