I have not seen any problems with the Solaris malloc, in fact it seems
that the VM behavior of our systems improved when we switched over.
Consider setting the DBI_TRACE environment variable if you're having
problems such as this. It will show you where your connections are
going up and down. Does your DBD driver support pings? If not you
should check out the Apache::DBI docs for info on how to roll your
own..
If you feel like recompiling perl on solaris you might want to review
the following options used to build perl with gcc 2.95.3. Seems to
work well for us...
