Do a file on the perl binary i.e. :- file /usr/bin/perl5.6.1 /usr/bin/perl5.6.1: ELF 32-bit LSB executable i386 (386 and up) Version 1, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped If it says not stripped, the type strip /usr/bin/perl5.6.1 (Replacing the above file for your perl instance) 99% of the time its stripped, but if not it will make it smaller and use less memory Regards Darren ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
