The problem with valgrind is that they don't update it often enough. Is once a year enough?

- fdej 11y agoWhy does it need to be updated? Valgrind is that rare piece of software that always has been working absolutely flawlessly for me.
- rincebrain 11y agoIf nothing else, it needs to be updated for various new syscalls/x86 instructions periodically on the different platforms it supports (if you've never tried running valgrind on something that isn't Linux, you might not have run into this.)
- Elv13 11y agoIf you wish to use new CPU features such as the imaginary AVX-1337, have fun waiting a year before being able to run your leak check. And no, I don't want to maintain multiple code paths on my system, even for compiled generated AVX[2,512,SSE4.1] code. If you do so, you end up having a dev system unrepresentative of the production one.
