Hi, I have a memory usage/garbage collection question. When you overwrite a piddle with a (smaller) part of itself, what happens to the original piddle? Is it still in memory? i.e. what happens in each of the following cases?
perldl> $a = sequence(10) perldl> $a = $a(0:4) perldl> $b = sequence(10) perldl> $b = $b(0:4)->copy perldl> $c = sequence(10) perldl> $c = $c(0:4)->sever Or is there a better way of dropping unwanted parts of a piddle? Thanks, Trevor.
