tos has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello friends,

within a (for my means) relative big Tk-project i notice a fast growing memory-utilisation at runtime. Since i delete no longer needed widgets and/or vars, i've expected a nearly constant amount of memory-use. Because this is not the case, i now want to find out which datastructures are responsible.

Could anybody give me a hint how to explore perls(Tks) memory-use ? I could imagine that there exists a possibility to dump it.

Thanks in advance and regards, tos
