Can you send me your rcfile and command-line options you specify? The
only thing I can think of off-hand that would consume more memory is
author and subject based sorting since there is a pre-extraction phase
to make comparisons quicker.
I do not know if there are any memory profilers for perl. I'll
check the Devel::* modules, but I doubt there is anything. If
anyone knows of any memory profile tools for perl, please drop
me a note.
