in thread How do I pre-allocate an array of hashes?

I wondered if we should blame Perl garbage collection too - but our tests with replacing libc6 2.2.5 with libc6 2.3.1 show that Perl is not to blame - the problem is in the memory management in libc6

Thanks for the pointer to the POSIX::_exit - but this is only useful if the problem happens at the end of processing, in fact we have the 'slow free' problem both at the end, and during processing.
