Try different sized function sylv, see if a 5-liner is big... I doubt it will be.

The numbers for the closure versions:

1000 - 81K
500 - 41K
250 - 21K
100 - 8K
10 - 1K

The numbers for the main chunk versions:

1000 - 34K
500 - 17K
250 - 8K
100 - 3K
10 - 0K

Looks to me like a pretty damn linear correlation of number of lines to memory used.

There is also 8K worth of code in both cases. So, basically my theory is that the globals you would allocate if for function was executed are counted twice, plus you retain the code itself which uses 8K. In the non-closure case that code would be gc'd at the end of the execution of the main chunk.

As I explained in http://www.wowace.com/forums/index.php?topic=3936.msg196907#msg196907, I also experienced something weird with GetAddOnMemoryUsage()

FuBar_PerformanceFu in a typical environment will report that Links is using something around 20K/s memory growth.

One thing Links does is hook the global function SetItemRef. This function is the only entry point of Links, but the memory growth is reported even when this function is not called. Weird.

Yeah, I saw that thread. Clearly we don't understand what is happening. I know Prat hooks setitemref, and doesn't have the same problem links does, maybe we should compare what each does.

Does Prat hook SetItemRef via AceHook or another framework ? Maybe it's the framework that gets the blame (although it's then difficult to identify, as a framework get the blame for a lot of memory allocations).
