I have a large Perl web application (Perl 5.8.8, build 822) running 
under PerlEx with IIS 6. The IIS worker process is set to recycle every 
hour because a long recycle time causes hanging ODBC connections with 
locks on key tables when the worker process shuts down.

What we are observing is that once in a while (every week or two), the 
application in some of the interpreters suddenly starts getting 
incomplete CGI parameters both in POSTS and GETS. The last time the 
problem resolved itself after three or four hours, so it seems that 
worker process recycling isn't helping. The first time, an iisreset was 
done to solve the problem.

This is a legacy application making heavy use of the functional CGI.pm 
interface, so it wasn't possible to move to object oriented. 
CGI::initialize_globals is called at the end of every request.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
