Re: [TuxKart-devel] tuxkart cvs being slow...

I worked several times with valgrind. And I storngly recommend to use=20
version 2.1 and above. 2.2 should work on ppc architecture, but that's=20
experimental. 2.0 is SLOW! And I mean it!
Working with valgrind is really easy, simply run:

valgrind --tool=3Dmemcheck --leak-check=3Dyes ./tuxkart

and look at the output (if it's much output, you can tell valgrind to=20
use a logfile, but I don't know the option right now)
