That's good news. I'm kinda curious why we use so much more memory. I'll
add that to my todo list as well.

Did Insure detect any memory leaks (allocated but not free'd)?

I'd like to use Insure as well, but the people at parasoft tell me they
don't let people eval versions of their product on platforms they have
no competitors, such as Linux. I have to buy it to test it out. Oh well.
