Monks,

Looking through the past posts, i noted that in order to optimize efficently (which i'm trying to do), i should use the DBIx::Profile and/or Devel::DProf module.

This, however, causes a problem. Whenever i ue DBIx::Profile, i get a slew of "DBI Handle has uncleared implementor data" errors - and with the number of inserts i'm doing, it quickly washes out any good results from that module.

Also, when i try to use the Devel::DProf module, it starts with "Subroutine DB redefined at /ur/lib/perl/5.6.1/Devel/DProf.pm line 184", after which it runs, but dies with SEGVs in the children at (seemingly) random places - at least, not in the same place twice in a row (its always in the children, since the parent completes successfully every time). The script runs fine under normal conditions.

(Its probably also worth noting that i fork a lot in the script, for concurrency)

Has anyone else had these problems? Are there other profilers that people reccomend that i can try?
