I checked with valgrind too and see similar memory leaks. Is v compiler written in vlang yet? I see lot of warnings and leaks for the compiler.

- amedvednikov 4y agoIt has been written in V from the start (the first public release). V doesn't free memory when building V for performance reasons. A compiler is a perfect example of an app where freeing memory is totally fine on exit, by the OS. Fortunately V is efficient and doesn't result in gigabytes of RAM used when compiling large bases of code (V itself is about 110k loc + 100k of vlib). Once there are code bases that require gigabytes of RAM, we'll add an option to free it as it goes.
