in reply to memory leak with Thread::Queue ?

What version of perl are you using? I believe that leak was fixed in 5.8.1

    Hi Dave_the_m

    I think you have hit the nail on the head

    >perl -v This is perl, v5.8.0 built for aix-thread-multi Copyright 1987-2002, Larry Wall Perl may be copied only under the terms of either the Artistic License + or the GNU General Public License, which may be found in the Perl 5 source ki +t.

    I will test it on some later flavours.

    Update

    Sure enough a test on 5.8.7 works fine as well. Version to blame, sorry for the inconvenience

    Many thanks,
    R.
