James,
huuuu... - I've tested the new function with Windows and Linux and it was
running fine.
The behavior on Mac is realy strange.
The function works as follows:
- at compile time ASSP trys to find AsspSelfLoader.pm
- if AsspSelfLoader was found at it is selected in the configuration to
use , assp.pl modifies its self by removing two '#' (line 3979 and line
4655).
- this makes all code lines after line 4655 simple text lines (no code) -
so Perl stops compiling at line 4655)
- AsspSelfLoader.pm loads the lines after 4655 in to memory as simple text
and does an analyze for packages and subroutines and implements an
AUTOLOAD function in to each found package
- If any thread trys to call a subroutine that does'nt exists in the
symbol table of Perl, the AUTOLOAD sub of that package is called and will
compile the subroutine 'on the fly' - if the compilation was successfull
the compiled code remains in memory and the text part will be deleted.
- So only needed (called) subroutines will be compiled by Perl - this
reduces the memory usage.
>I saw perl's memory usage climb
This is normal using the AsspAutoLoader - because the new compiled code
(at call time) needs more memory that the simple text.
How ever you should not use this module.

Betreff: Re: [Assp-test] fixes and news in assp_2.0.2_3.0.02
I upgraded to 2.0.2_3.0.02 and put the module in the assp/lib folder.
Started ASSP.
Watching Activity Monitor (running Mac OS X 10.5.8) I saw perl's memory
usage climb.
Perl then got heaps of malloc errors:
7/03/11 10:10:37 AM perl5.10.1[363] perl5.10.1(363,0xb038d000) malloc: ***
mmap(size=16777216) failed (error code=12)
*** error: can't allocate region
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
and assp wouldn't let any new message in. Virtual Memory use grew to use
all remaining HD space.
Restarted the mail server, didn't take long before the same thing started
to happen again.
Removed the AsspSelfLoader.pm file from assp/lib folder, restarted ASSP
and all has been well since.
James.
