in thread Oh where has my memory gone?

Its still doing it, slowly but surely this script eats all the RAM available! 0.5, 0.9, 1.4, 25... Dead! Is there a better way of writing this? It seems simple enough, but eventually the script will end with the out of memory error.

    Sorry for that... Although perl was eating a ton of memory, it ended up being other processes as well. Thank god for SWAP!
