Some memory mgt strategies keep all the memory that brk() gets for the process.
Are you calling pthread_cleanup_push() & pthread_cleanup_pop() ? Under some circumstances: if the (void *) arg == 0 nothing will happen. ie., you leave junk behind.

pthread_cleanup_push
pthread_cleanup_push(3C) pthread_cleanup_push(3C)
NAME
pthread_cleanup_push - push a thread cancellation cleanup handler
SYNOPSIS
cc -mt [ flag... ] file... -lpthread [ library... ]
#include <pthread.h>
void pthread_cleanup_push(void (*handler, void *),void *arg);
The pthread_cleanup_push() function pushes the specified cancellation cleanup handler routine, handler, onto the cancellation cleanup stack
of the calling thread.
When a thread exits or is canceled and its cancellation cleanup stack is not empty, the cleanup handlers are invoked with the argument
arg in last in, first out (LIFO) order from the cancellation cleanup stack.
The pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop(3C) functions can be implemented as macros. The application must ensure that they appear
as statements, and in pairs within the same lexical scope (that is, the pthread_cleanup_push() macro can be thought to expand to a token
list whose first token is '{' with pthread_cleanup_pop() expanding to a token list whose last token is the corresponding '}').
The effect of the use of return, break, continue, and goto to prematurely leave a code block described by a pair of pthread_cleanup_push()
and pthread_cleanup_pop() function calls is undefined.
Using longjmp() or siglongjmp() to jump into or out of a push/pop pair can cause either the matching push or the matching pop statement not
getting executed.
The pthread_cleanup_push() function returns no value.
No errors are defined.
The pthread_cleanup_push() function will not return an error code of EINTR.
