Before this merge the memory usage was 66,832,396 bytes, and after it was 2,815,061, a decrease of about 95%. The biggest gain came from storing unique strings only once.
Amazing! Good work. Cheers, Fyodor _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/
