Perl has reference count garbage collection. When an object has no references left it is marked for recycling. The $processObj and @procInfo are marked as "my" or lexical variables. This means they will go out of scope when outside of the braces that contain them. In your case that would be the end of getProcInfo. When the references go out of scope the object's reference count gets decremented.
