Rue- I think session saver is a great extension. How's the next release coming? When can we expect to get our hands on it?

Until a few days ago, I didn't have a regular test-crew. I'm on a mac, and the holdup was some new backend-code that wasn't working for windows. I tried irc-sessions with some mozillazine users, but their time was limited.
.
The crew is well in place, now. So progress resumes.

sorry, but i was one of the guilty ones..... (irregular hours)

OSX seems unhappy lately (10.3.3, G3/Pismo) and I started seeing a lot of this in Console. I'm going to turn off Session Saver for now, but in case the "malloc" info is helpful or cautionary, here it is.

My superstitious behavior has been that, if I see "Malloc" I get rid of whatever seemed to cause that to happen, and it seems to help a bit. I haven't had to reinstall OSX from scratch as often lately ...

*** malloc[441]: Deallocation of a pointer not malloced: 0xf01811fc; This could be a double free(), or free() called with the middle of an allocated block; Try setting environment variable MallocHelp to see tools to help debug


(I never learned how to follow that suggestion in the last line, and assume it's just for programmers anyhow).

In lamens terms, someone tried to free memory that hasn't been allocated. Nothing major to worry about, I think.

This is an outdated version, at Mozilla:
https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=43

As clarified by Rue further down in that link, more info at the home page:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=47184

(111 pages there as of now, there's probably a pointer in there somewhere about what works and where to get it. Too deep for me)
