hi,
i posted a few weeks ago, and didn't get an answer, so i'm trying again. i
assume that if i'm seeing this problem, then someone else must be as well.
there was a memory leak in DBD::Oracle 1.2 (i'm pretty sure it was 1.2)
that came about on connect/disconnect. it was a running thread, and someone
mailed me a patch, (that worked), and then it was incorporated into 1.3. i
am now running the following configuration:
solaris 7
DBI 1.14
DBD::Oracle 1.6
Summary of my perl5 (5.0 patchlevel 5 subversion 2)
Oracle 8.1.7
and the problem is back. my application runs forever as a daemon, and
connects and disconnects all the time. the memory leak last time was on the
order of 32k each connect, something like that, so the processes grow to the
point that the machine hangs.
has anyone else seen this? is there a patch floating around? i can go
search the archives for the last one and see if that works.
any thoughts?
thanks,
mickm
