Hi there,

I'm trying to implement a very simple HTTP server for my own client. I tried the example provided. Unfortunately, it is still leaking as bad as 100 megabytes for 100-200 requests. It's also very slow processing requests even when it returns the very same file every time. I'm stuck. Please help! Any ideas what to change?

I'm trying to run it on Windows and FreeBSD. On Windows platform it has a bug described here HTTP::Daemon not working in threads? regarding stuck threads.

I'm using apache2(worker-mpm)/mod_perl2/perl(threads) right now to run my server-side script. Its performance is not what I expect even after numerous optimizations. That's why I was trying to implement a simple server to process these requests. But right now it's 10(ten) times slower than the current system.

Thank you!
