again, somewhat incorrect. a properly well written daemon will not leak
ram and can run for a long time. note that many daemons in the OS don't
respawn at all. they have been debugged and are long running without
leaks. perl itself will generally not leak but it is easy to create perl
data structure which don't get properly freed up (reference loops) and
that can leak. there have been reports of perl itself leaking in various
versions under certain circumstances but the average perl program won't
hit those. any leaks then are usually the fault of the perl coder, not
perl.
