Hi Everybody,

I tried a few stunts to find the memory leak in the TpcClusterizer and what finally 

stopped it was turning off the creation of the ClusterHitAssoociation map. 

With this disabled the memory along 1000 events is pretty stable. See PrMon plot below.

It looks like thes ClusterHitsAssoc map is not properly reset. Looking in the Clusterizer code 

neither the clustermap nor the assoc map are reset. Which makes sense since the INTT and 

MVTX clusterizers also write to the same maps. 

While ClusterMap apparently gets reset properly, the assoc map doesn't.

Where do we do this actually?

Cheers
