Need help troubleshooting high memory usage issue #17

Closed lfcnassif closed 2 years ago

lfcnassif commented 2 years ago

Hi @joachimmetz. First, thank you very much for your work with this great library.

Using latest released version 20140812, seems it could be leaking memory reading large E01 images. This was first reported in our project here: https://github.com/sepinf-inc/IPED/issues/993

Are you aware of some related issue? We would like some advice from you if possible, can libewf-experimental-20201230 be used for production? Or is libewf-legacy or other stable libewf version still trying to fix memory leaks when confirmed?

Thank you very much in advance.

@lfcnassif could you summarize what is the issue you are observing? high memory usage or a leak?

Hi @joachimmetz, I posted a summary in the downstream project here as all the details are there. Thanks for your time.
