Can anyone tell me what are Perl memory leak symptoms? I'd like to know if I need to install a memory leak module to check? Any symptoms related to the perl58.dll failing, weird actions the compiler would make, memory issues, other unusual script ending issues? I have a Perl script that's just ending before its supposed to and blowing up my system memory usage from 600 to 900+ MB instantly and then just quitting on me. And the funny thing it's failing on a line that holds nothing more than an type int counter, where the counter is only at approximately 1,040,770. Does this sound like a memory leak?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
