[Paraview-developers] Fw: Valgrind + Paraview

I have to re-send this message since I subscribed to the list after sending the original message. So it should go through this time around.

Hi,

I'm currently debugging some of my own filters so I thought I would run valgrind with paraview.  It appears that valgrind and paraview are entirely
 disconnected, even though my command line arguments appear to be correct and paraview has been built as a debug version.  Here is the terminal output:
shodan at shodan:~/kitware/ParaView-3.8.0-bin-debug/bin$ valgrind --tool=memcheck --track-origins=yes --leak-check=full
 ./paraview

Finished computing Lambda-2 and vorticity fields, it took: 0 second(s).
Number of negative Lambda-2s: 291072 out of 896000 tuples.
Values min/max: -17.3383/7.8664.
Lower threshold: -0.01
Num seeds for vortex cores: 1998.

....usually valgrind reports more information when the program exits.  Also, paraview appears to be running way to fast, which tells me that valgrind isn't doing anything (usually the slowdowns are very noticeable).  Has anyone used valgrind with Paraview?  

Thanks, Sohail
