Issue #19993 has been reported by HParker (Adam Hess). ---------------------------------------- Feature #19993: Optionally Free all memory at exit https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19993 * Author: HParker (Adam Hess) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- Add a runtime option allowing Ruby to optionally free all memory at shutdown. # why Today, memory sanitizers are difficult to use with Ruby, since not all memory is freed at shutdown. it is difficult to detect memory leaks or errors in Ruby or in Ruby C extensions when these tools are not available. While implementing this feature, we were able to identify and fix a number of memory leaks and errors. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8556 https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8512 https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8503 https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8487 https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8452 https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8501 https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8481 https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8555 This shows that having access to tools like this can make finding and fixing memory bugs easier. # current progress Today we can allow ruby developers to enable freeing memory at shutdown via the `free-at-shutdown` runtime option.
