well you could write a self referential function

        sub sillyMe {
                my ($arg ) = @_
                my $value = $arg + time + 1;
                sillyMe($value);
        }

        sillyMe(1);


that wouldn't really 'leak' but it would buy you a
stack frame for each call - and some arguments each
time through until you ran out of heap....
