I am going to push some changes related to memory loggin.
In short:
* PetscHeaderCreate now logs the mem it allocates.
* A new macro PetscNewLog(obj, type, ptr) was added. This should be
used, for example, for allocating internal structures of various
subtypes. Of course, I've already made all the changes in the rest of
the code and tested ir exaustively with some python scripts, so I
believe all its right.
Currently, 'PetscNewLog' macro dereferences the PetscObject 'obj'
pointer (actually, PetscLogObjectMemory do this). This can be changed
to accept a NULL (I am inclined to this). Finally, perhaps a better
name can be found. Any suggestion?
The next step would be to do something similar for PetscMalloc. Barry
want to take into accout temporarily allocated mem. But as a start, I
will try first to do the proper loggin for 'permanent' memory.
