Was your perl compiled to use your system's malloc(), or Perl's own? You can find out with a command like this one: perl -MConfig -lwe 'print $Config{usemymalloc}' Whichever you used, if you try recompiling with the other, your "Out of memory" problems may silently vanish. Then again, maybe not; but it seems worth a try at this point. Some systems only work properly with Perl's malloc(), others only with their own.
