after trying for days to overcome a memory-leak problem

Care to expand on that ? You are aware that Perl maintains its own heap, and doesn't release memory once it acquires it from the runtime heap ? Which, from external monitoring apps, may make it appear that you've got a memory leak, when in fact Perl is just doing its thing.

That said, when doing big load jobs into DBMS's, there are any number of potential concurrency pitfalls, some of which will occur in both forked and threaded environments (possibly because they occur in the DBMS itself). YMMV.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
