WARNING: Perftools heap leak checker is active -- Performance may suffer

Leak check _main_ detected leaks of 404 bytes in 1 objects
The 1 largest leaks:
Using local file /root/src/test_memleak.
Leak of 404 bytes in 1 objects allocated from:
@ 4007ff main
@ 3d8dc1d994 __libc_start_main
If the preceding stack traces are not enough to find the leaks, try running THIS shell command:
pprof /root/src/test_memleak "/tmp/test_memleak.25383._main_-end.heap" --inuse_objects --lines --heapcheck --edgefraction=1e-10 --nodefraction=1e-10 --gv
If you are still puzzled about why the leaks are there, try rerunning this program with HEAP_CHECK_TEST_POINTER_ALIGNMENT=1 and/or with HEAP_CHECK_MAX_POINTER_OFFSET=-1
If the leak report occurs in a small fraction of runs, try running with TCMALLOC_MAX_FREE_QUEUE_SIZE of few hundred MB or with TCMALLOC_RECLAIM_MEMORY=false, it might help fi
Exiting with error code (instead of crashing) because of whole-program memory leaks
上面的报告显示有404个字节的内存泄漏，并提示使用pprof进一步跟踪泄漏来源的方法。

根据上面提示，锁定具体的代码文件及代码行，协助开发快速定位到内存泄露问题bug。当然这是很简单的例子，还得经得起实际应用程序的考验，帮助开发成长避免重复错误，拿饮食行业比喻，想成为美食评估师，而不是清洁服务员。
最后，补充一点，除了前面使用env命令行的全局内存泄漏检查方式外，还可以作对代码段的更加细粒度的泄漏检查。这里考虑不修改源代码的前提下检查内存泄露，所以暂时不考虑。好的 C/C++程序员，应该做到自己的程序都能优雅退出，这是最基本的要求。这里所谓的优雅退出，指的是退出的时候把该释放的资源释放掉，且保证程序退出时不挂。
