Just out of curiosity what is it that is leaking in v2? I do not have much experience with perl, but I do knot what ASSP runs on perl. Taking something like php, if there is a leak, it is not going to be something the user caused, and something in the php core.
I would have assumed, perl, being a scripting language as well, the same would hold mostly true. As far as I know, in php, every call you make that uses up memory, has a way to flush your used when done, but if you forget, it will auto flush when the connection is finished. MySql and output buffers are a good example. Is it that perl is a little more nuts and bolts, and this is something you have to keep a closer eye on? Could someone provide me a small pseudo code example of some perl that leaked badly? I would be curious to learn how that works. What about tools like: http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Test%3A%3AMemory%3A%3ACycle http://search.cpan.org/~lds/Devel-Cycle-1.11/lib/Devel/Cycle.pm They seem very simple methods for learning where the problems could come from. Maybe there are parts of ASSP that might deserve to be looked at as candidates for C, where things could be optimized much more? Not trying to bash on perl in any way, I am genuinely curious to understand this issue. -- Scott * If you contact me off list replace talklists@ with scott@ * On Nov 1, 2009, at 2:45 PM, bytehd wrote: > running 1.5.1.18 > uptime is measures in months > 1.x doesnt leak memory as bad > thats why v2 will be v3 before we switch to it ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
