No - it's a nightmare. To debug memory leaks in AxKit, everything is wrapped in eval{}, and I simply run ab (ships with apache) on my site watching the memory size (in top), and move a line throwing an exception steadily forward through the code line by line until the leak reveals itself. Sounds painful, and it is, but it's a *lot* easier than Apache::Leak, which reports way too many false positives. - -- <:->get a SMart net</:-> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE86JLuVBc71ct6OywRAh78AJ90I+h4zsp3ecBcmKUoKHPb1EaNQgCgsFxK ZmbS8TEvbnbLTEsknbQ10Zk= =nJBs -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
