Hello,
I'm using MOD_APACHE 3.2.8 (from binary dist). with Apache 2.0.55 under Windows
XP Pro.
I encounter memory leaks (~ 16 Ko per request) with a very basic handler like :
import mod_python
from mod_python import util
def handler(req):
F=util.FieldStorage( req )
return mod_python.apache.OK
And sending an HTTP request like :
==== Output from TCPWATCH ====

Has somebody encountered the same problem ?
Is there a turn-around or a fix that can be forecasted ?
This is the first that this has been reported, so forecasting a fix is
difficult. It would be helpful if you created a JIRA issue at
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON
util.FieldStorage is straight python code, so I'm surprised that it
would be leaking, particularly 16K per request. Can you offer any more
details? How are you testing, other mod_python Apache directives you may
be using an so on.
It's probably best to keep this discussion on the developer's list so
that the thread doesn't get muddled.
