Which distribution is this? The kernel versions don't suggest RHEL 5 but still this sounds like a similar problem: The following RHEL/CentOS bug haven't been closed until someone had the brains to submit the issue to slashdot: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=379791 This was a bug introduced by RedHat themselves so not cross-platform, but as far as I remember it was introduced due to wrong patching of a problem in vanilla perl, so maybe other distro's/versions had similar problems. Your time output suggests problem at the user code level to me. What about trying to profile the perl script? http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2004/06/25/profiling.html http://search.cpan.org/~jaw/Devel-Profile-1.05/Profile.pm And lots others from searching for "perl profile". --Amos
