Further investigation with valgrind has revealed that the memory growth as seen with shared arrays push()ing and pop()ping, is not a leak as far as valgrind is concerned. So apparently Perl is just allocating way too much and not using it properly. But no, there is no result (yet). If your looking for queue functionality, you might want to look at Thread::Conveyor. If your just looking for shared arrays that don't grow, you might want to look at Thread::Tie. Both available from CPAN. Liz
