in reply to Does Perl have garbage collection mechanism and how it performs?
Hi joost,
I re-compile the shared module and run my script again, but the memory leak
problem goes on...
I also tried to compile the forks module, but failed when "nmake test" ;-(
To BrowserUk:
The Thread::Queue module is really better, however, it cannot solve the
memory leak problem completely.
Now, I will explain to you what i want to do through the my script .
The main thread reads a file list one file after another, and put into the
queue. (The file list contains many text files that vary from some kb to
some Mb. The total size is about hundreds of Mb. ) And then let the other
three or more threads parse this queue, if the queue is empy, then the main
thread read the next text file.
I cannot run only this program once on my box, so I have to solve this
problem!
Maybe i should try fork, but it might be troublesome. I prefer to
multi-thread, which looks much more simple.
Thanx for all the replys.
