I'm resending this message because I previously used the wrong From:
address. Sorry for any inconvenience.:
I am experiencing a memory leak with Crypt::SSLeay and OpenSSL.
If you have any idea why this could be happening, I'd really appreciate
your input. Thanks.
The following program leaks memory:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use LWP::UserAgent;
while(1) {
my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
my $req = new HTTP::Request('GET', 'https://www.hotmail.com');
my $res = $ua->request($req);
}
However, if https is changed to http, the program does not leak.
