I don't think you grasp the situation, Steve. Having
enable-thread-safety turned on is standard across a wide swath of the
world, and yet nobody else has reported severe memory leaks in ecpg.
So there's something very specific to what your app is doing that
triggers the problem. There's little point in anyone else investigating
unless you can give them a test case that reproduces the misbehavior.
I can assure you we would like to fix the problem if we can find it.
But with no cooperation from you, we'll just have to wait until someone
else stumbles across it and can show us exactly how to make it happen.
