You're right. Eery time such a loop finishes and sthe subroutine exits (thus clearing the localized useragent object) it gains about 20k of memory.
I don't know if it's relevant, but this is experinced when I turn the script to an EXE file using perlApp from activestate. I never tested it as a script. ----- Original Message ----- From: "William R Ward" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 30, 2001 3:50 AM Subject: Re: 500 Read error > [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Beyond Control Inc.) writes: > > Unfortunatly, if I start it now it *will* work for 10 hours, then die. > > > > This is why I find this to be so weird, since I look like IE5, and I always > > create a new UserAgent object so that I won't get cookied or anything like > > that... > > Try cranking up the rate to every 10 seconds and watching memory usage > using something like "top".
