[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi there,
I was implementing a simplistic shell script parser for fun in C. When
profiling with valgrind with --trace-children=yes, I accidentally profiled
`grep` and noticed that there was over 110KB of memory leakage.
I am running grep v3.6 which is the most recent according to `dnf` on
Fedora Linux 35 (KDE Plasma) x86_64 with kernel 5.16.9-200
Thinking that it was because of whatever came with Fedora, I tried
compiling from source but the same memory leakage persisted.
The line that I was profiling was
cat /proc/self/status | grep nonvol > nonvoluntaryswitches.txt
Regards,
Mahyar
