lynx-dev leak statistics?

[Leonid Pauzner]

Strange thing.  Assume the following change:

diff -u -p -r LYNX2-8-.PRO/src/trstable.c LYNX2-8-.LEA/src/trstable.c
--- LYNX2-8-.PRO/src/trstable.c 2001-07-07 18:30:14

                                   contentless cells (and cells we do
                                   not want to measure and count?),

+       short   len;            /* number of character positions */
+       short   colspan;        /* number of columns to span */
+       short   alignment;      /* one of HT_LEFT, HT_CENTER, HT_RIGHT,

 } STable_cellinfo;

e.g., struct size reduced from  5*sizeof(int) to sizeof(int) + 4*sizeof(short)

Now LY_FIND_LEAKS statistics, test file with stbl:

    5*sizeof(int) :

Peak allocation 994286
Bytes allocated 20324352
Total mallocs   85801
Total frees     85799

    sizeof(int) + 4*sizeof(short) :

Peak allocation 1804270
Bytes allocated 20266495
Total mallocs   85801
Total frees     85799

   sizeof(int) + 4*sizeof(signed char) :

Peak allocation 2209262
Bytes allocated 20237569
Total mallocs   85801
Total frees     85799


What's happend with  "Peak allocation"  value?
