Possible Memory Leak in mex file initialization on Mac OS? #1392

Open creuzige opened 2 years ago

What do you want to do? Trying to update to mtex 5.8.1 from 5.3, I first downloaded from the web browser and got the library load disallowed as covered in the install guide. Tried the !sudo xattr command, that seemed to get past the error popups. However, the install/initialization step started to affect my computer performance, and it was using over 100 GB of RAM. Had to force quit my computer as it was hanging.

Deleted the mtex-5.8.1 directory, and downloaded using the command line via curl. Activity Monitor indicates I'm using 90 GB of RAM, and the process has been going on for nearly an hour...

What MTEX version do you use? Mtex 5.8.1, Matlab 2019a Mac OS 11.6.5

Edit: Seems to compile successfully on Mtex 5.7.0
