In reply to my own question, I found the cuplrit after some poking
around in frequent restarts of the webserver using:
apachectl restart
After each code change, the new scripts were copied onto the server and
apache restarted. Since we are in active development, this occured
several times a day and each time apache was restarted this way, its
memory consumption went up.
Doing it the "hard" way with the /etc/rc.d/init.d script
httpd restart
solves the problem.
Kindof a weired interaction between mod_perl and apache - can someone
elaborate on "is this a bug or is it a feature"?
Regards
Andreas
