| Description | In the hot variety, mps_pool_free_size returns the wrong result for AWL and LO pools. |
| Analysis | This is because the computation of poolGen->freeSize is guarded by STATISTIC macros and so not done in the hot variety. This works out fine for AMC and AMCZ (which don't keep free memory), but not for AWL and LO (which do). This exposes the problem that there isn't a test case that checks the size accounting for the automatic pool classes. The really stringent checks on size accounting are done in apss and mpmss for the manual pool classes, but the test in finaltest is rather weak. |
