You have to make sure that all these vars get undef'ed at the end of your
request, otherwise the content will take up memory until they are assigned a
new value. Inside a Embperl page, Embperl will do this for you, but in your
own modules your are responsible for doing this on your own.
You may install Apache::Status in your system, to browser thru your symbol
table, to see which vars are defined with which content.
