Nethercote: Twenty years of Valgrind

Nicholas Nethercote marksthe 20th anniversary of the Valgrind 1.0 release.

It's both delightful and surreal to see that Valgrind is still inwide use today. Julian [Seward's] original goal was to raise thebar when it came to correctness for C and C++ programs. This hasclearly been a huge success. Memcheck has found countless bugs incountless programs, and is a standard part of the testing setup formany of them.
