in thread Out of Memory Error -- Possible Leak?

The machine itself has 32 GB, but I'm using a 32-bit compiled Perl so presumably it can only address 4 of those.

Also, 100 million arrays is a realistic estimate (its not sparse). I had thought that by using DBM::Deep I would be storing the majority of this data on disk, so that the actual amount stored in memory would be much smaller than 100 million x size(data-structure). Am I misguided on that?
