I guess it happens somewhere inside CGI.pm (unless other formfields, file uploads are handled by CGI.pm and not Embperl itself). The only way to debug this I see at the moment, is to put printouts of the httpd size into CGI.pm, to see at which point the memory is taken... Gerald P.S. I CC this to the list, maybe somebodyelse had a similar problem.
