Hi,
    Please share any experience with tools used to debug memory leaks
in Alpine Linux based dockers. I'm able to get a core, but none of the
tools like memleax, VMware chap etc would work. I tried jemalloc, but
even that doesn't work in Alpine Linux 3.11.11/3.13.5. Using valgrind
is not an option in production environment.

Regards,
Srini

Hej,

I think clang's sanitizers (LSAN) should work once we bump clang to
12.x.x (which we can do after 3.14 got branched). In the meantime I
think Valgrind in an isolated environment is probably a better idea
(using other sanitizers in production isn't necessarily a good idea
either).
