A workaround is to add a layer in between.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Scalar::Util qw(weaken); my @data = (1, 2, 3); weaken( my $indirection = \@data ); print time, " test 0: main start\n"; &gogogo(); print time, " test 3: main end\n"; sub gogogo { print time, " test 1: func start\n"; my @h; for (1 .. 200000) { my %hash = (data => $indirection); push @h, \%hash; } print time, " test 2: func end\n"; }
You'd have to change
my $data = $h[0]{data};
to
my $data = ${ $h[0]{data} };
if you use this workaround.
