OK, would it be possible to update the documentation? Is there a way to trigger a full collection of all unreachable objects? I would like to use this and the numbers that garbage-collect returns to check that a certain piece of code does not leak memory. Or is there another way to check that all allocations done within a form are unreachable after leaving that form? Thanks Hendrik

I've simplified the test case. As the bug submitter says, there's more
vectors after this than before:
((vec2 5) (vec1 5))
But I'm not sure you can use this data in this fine-grained way. For
instance:
(let (gc-start gc-state hash result)
;; record gc statistics
(setq gc-start (garbage-collect))
;;(setq hash (make-hash-table))
(setq gc-state (garbage-collect))

Sounds good.
(let (gc-start gc-state hash result)
;; record gc statistics
(setq gc-start (garbage-collect))
(make-hash-table)
(setq gc-state (garbage-collect))
(push (list 'vec1 (- (caddr (assoc 'vectors gc-state))

(setq gc-state (garbage-collect))
(push (list 'vec2 (- (caddr (assoc 'vectors gc-state))
(caddr (assoc 'vectors gc-start))))
result)
result)
=> ((vec2 -1) (vec1 4))
Uhmn...
So I'm not sure there's anything to fix here, except perhaps noting in
the doc string that you can't do precision math on the numbers? Anybody?

Hi,
I have the impression hash tables and their content are not
garbage collected when the hash table is not referenced any more.
Consider the following piece of elisp code:
(let (gc-start gc-state hash symbol result)
;; record gc statistics
(setq gc-start (garbage-collect))
;; create a hash and put an uninterned symbol into it
(setq hash (make-hash-table))
(setq symbol (make-symbol "x"))
(puthash symbol t hash)
;; take gc stats and record the differences of used symbols and used
;; vectors in result
(setq gc-state (garbage-collect))
(push (list 'sym1 (- (caddr (assoc 'symbols gc-state))
(caddr (assoc 'symbols gc-start))))
result)
(push (list 'vec1 (- (caddr (assoc 'vectors gc-state))
(caddr (assoc 'vectors gc-start))))
result)
;; make the symbol and the hash inaccessible
(setq symbol nil)
(setq hash nil)
;; take gc stats again and record the differences of used symbols
;; and used vectors in result
(setq gc-state (garbage-collect))
(push (list 'sym2 (- (caddr (assoc 'symbols gc-state))
(caddr (assoc 'symbols gc-start))))
result)
(push (list 'vec2 (- (caddr (assoc 'vectors gc-state))
(caddr (assoc 'vectors gc-start))))
result)
result)
With emacs -Q it returns ((vec2 5) (sym2 1) (vec1 5) (sym1 1)),
while I was expecting ((vec2 0) (sym2 0) ...).
What am I doing wrong that prevents the third call to
garbage-collect to garbage collect the hash and the uninterned
symbol?
Note that with inserting a clrhash before setting hash to nil,
the symbol gets collected, but the vectors won't. What is needed
to garbage collect a hash table?
Thanks,
Hendrik
