gperftools 2.17 is out!

We have had a few relatively simple updates since the RC release.

  • Salvatore Dipietro has contributed SB instruction support for spinlock delay loops on newer ARMs.

  • libgcc backtrace capturing method now handles deep backtraces better.

  • PPC+musl users can now workaround some issues building PPC-specific backtrace code by adding TCMALLOC_DISABLE_PPC_FRAME_POINTER_BACKTRACER preprocessor define. Much thanks to Josef Schlehofer for reporting the problem. See details in https://github.com/gperftools/gperftools/issues/1602.

  • Jackie Cui has contributed a small change to the page heap span selection logic that makes a big difference in reducing the amount of used memory in some workloads. See https://github.com/gperftools/gperftools/pull/1604 for further details.

Much thanks to all the contributors.
