Frequent garbage collections with SPMN62

archive

Hi everybody,

I have noticed that SPMN62 appears to do garbage collection a lot more frequently than SPMN60. I tried the following testcase to support my claim using both SPMN60 (6.0) and SPMN62 (06.20.001-p):

* Specman default limits for max memory size, garbage collection etc.
* Same VE, configuration, ecom, simulator, launch scripts etc.
* Same test consisting a single and simple (not memory intensive) transaction
* A few 'e' testbench variables traced by the ecom file

Using SPMN60, I got no garbage collections.
Using SPMN62, I got 6(!) garbage collections. Interestingly enough, when I removed the traced variables from the ecom file, I got no garbage collections using SPMN62.

Has anyone else noticed the same behavior? Any ideas on why SPMN62 does so many garbage collections?
