[ruby-core:94317] [Ruby master Bug#11459] Ruby leaks several MB of memory every setup/eval/cleanup cycle.

Issue #11459 has been updated by jeremyevans0 (Jeremy Evans).

Status changed from Open to Closed

`ruby_cleanup` should only be called once per process, before exiting (either via `main`->`ruby_run_node` or `ruby_stop`).  It is not expected to free all memory allocated earlier, since the process will be exiting and the operating system should free the remaining memory.

----------------------------------------
Even with a trivial eval "1" Ruby leaks about 2 MB or so after ruby_cleanup.

I've attached the raw list of leaks as reported by the CRT (I took a snapshot before ruby_setup and again after ruby_cleanup).

I've also attacked a few sample callstacks of the leaks (I picked 5 or so randomly).

Isn't ruby_cleanup supposed to clean something up?
