资源说明：a simple memory leak detector for ruby with preconfigured rails hooks. (git-svn mirror)
NAME
dike
SYNOPSIS
a simple memory leak detector for ruby with preconfigured rails hooks.
INSTALL
gem install dike
URIS
http://www.codeforpeople.com/lib/ruby/
http://rubyforge.org/projects/codeforpeople/
DESCRIPTION
the concept behind dike.rb is simple: class Object is extended in order that
the location of each object's creation is tracked. a summarizer command is
given to walk ObjectSpace using each object's class and the location if it's
creation to detect memory leaks. not all leaks can be detected and some that
are may not really be leaks, but dike provided a simple way to see the
hotspots in your code that may potentially be leaking.
HISTORY
0.0.4:
- under rare circumstances dike itself interacted strangely with certain
classes and caused them to leak, HTTPOK was one such example. this
release fixes that bug. thanks to Jan Kubr for providing a great test
case that helped me fix this.
EXAMPLES
### PURE RUBY
## just dumping sequential snapshots to stderr, looking at a specific class
# cfp:~ > cat sample/a.rb
require 'dike'
class Leak < ::String
end
Leaks = Array.new
Dike.filter Leak
loop do
Leaks << Leak.new('leak' * 1024)
Dike.finger
sleep 1
end
# cfp:~ > ruby sample/a.rb | less
---
- class: Leak
count: 2
trace:
- sample/a.rb:11
- sample/a.rb:10:in `loop'
- sample/a.rb:10
---
- class: Leak
count: 3
trace:
- sample/a.rb:11
- sample/a.rb:10:in `loop'
- sample/a.rb:10

- class: Leak
count: 4

- class: Leak
count: 5

- class: Leak
count: 6
trace:
- sample/a.rb:11
- sample/a.rb:10:in `loop'
- sample/a.rb:10
## dumping sequential snapshots using Dike.logfactory and then using the 'dike'
command line tool to do comparisons of the dumped snapshots
# cfp:~ > cat sample/b.rb
require 'dike'
Leaks = Array.new
class Leak
def initialize
@leak = 42.chr * (2 ** 20)
end
end
Dike.logfactory './log/'
Dike.finger
3.times{ Leaks << Leak.new }
Dike.finger
2.times{ Leaks << Leak.new }
Dike.finger
# cfp:~ > ruby sample/b.rb
# cfp:~ > ls log/
0 1 2
# cfp:~ > dike log/

require 'dike'
Dike.on :rails

NOTES
* the 'Dike.finger' method dumps it's log in a format showing
class : the class of object being leaked/allocated
count : the number instances leaked from the trace location
trace : the trace location of object creation
* loading into a rails environment causes snapshots of the above format to
be dumped into RAILS_ROOT/log/dike/ after each request. each snapshot is
incrementally numbered 0, 1, ...
* the 'dike' command line tool can be used in two ways
dike directory/with/logs/dike/
dike old_dump new_dump
if given a directory 'old_dump' and 'new_dump' are auto-calculated by
scanning the directory. in either case the tool dups a delta running old
-->> new. the delta shows only changes from old to new, so a line like
- class: Proc
count: 3
...
means that 3 Proc objects were created between the two dumps. note that,
when given a directory, the default old and new dumps are the oldest and
newest dumps respectively, to get fine grained information sumarizing the
changes between two requests give the files manually, for example
dike ./log/dike/41 ./log/dike/42
* options that affect logging
- Dike.filter pattern
pattern must respond to '===' and each object in ObjectSpace will be
compared against it. for example
Dile.filter Array
would cause logging to restrict itself to Array, or sublcasses of
Array
- Dike.log io
set the dike logging object. the object should respond to 'puts'.
- Dike.logfactory directory
cause logging to occur into a new log for each call the 'Dike.finger'.
the logs will be auto numbered 0, 1, ...
LIMITATIONS
not all object creation can be tracked. not all leaks are reported. some
reported leaks are not. dike shows you where in the source objects are being
created that cannot be reclaimed - these are not always leaks as this line
class C; end
shows. the class 'C' cannot be reclaimed and yet is not a leak.
