200x is correct. What's happening is that he makes a vector with tons of capacity and only a few elements, so lots of wasted space. Then he turns that vector into another vector using an operation that used to allocate a new vector (thus releasing the wasted space) but now reuses the previous vector's allocation (retaining the wasted space). It's definitely a sneaky bug. Not a "memory leak" in the normal sense since the memory will still be freed eventually. I'd call it an unexpected waste of memory. |
