<p>With respect to your comment on formatting help. Hopefully, this can serve as an example. But don't forget the handy links at the bottom of the composing window showing the HTML tags, etc.</p>

<p>As to your posting a large amount of code. The standard advice I give here is to make a copy of your program, and hack out a large chunk that you really don't believe could be affecting the problem. Then run it. If it truly didn't affect the problem (i.e., you're still losing memory), then make another copy, remove another chunk of code, etc. Eventually, you'll find that the last chunk you deleted caused the problem, and you can examine it in more detail. It also gives you a smaller program to post and ask questions about.</p>

<p>Yes, it can be a bit time consuming, but I expect you're already at the point where living with the problem is also painful. Give it a try and see what you can do with it.</p>

and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
