Re: memory leak in 32-bit DBD::mysql on a 64-bit Linux host

Hello, Igor.

I see that you use ActiveState Perl. DBD-mysql for AS Perl is currently broken (reported it at http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=74374).
As for memory leaks, you should report this to CPAN's bug tracker.

P.S. CPAN is big, maybe there is an open source module that does what this proprietary module does.
