Hi all (and Perrin),
I understand the concepts being discussed here.
However, no on replied one of my questions:
Let's conside this script:

use strict;
package mypack;
my $tmp;
$tmp .= 'a';
print '$tmp value: ' . $tmp . ' - address: ' . \$tmp . "\n"

No, that isn't what I was saying, and you're mixing separate concepts
together. A lexical variable can be a reference. You can have a
reference to a lexical variable. They are

Hi,
I think you got me wrong.
My initial question was basically something like "how could I preserve/give
back memory if needed" (i.e. in rare situations) and the reply turned up
into a "don't use large scalars". (which is relevant, I agree, but was not
directly replying my initial question)

Hi again,
If you have a lot of scripts that, for
example, load large data files, make a module with a sub that you call
to load the files and use it from all your scripts. Pass the data by
reference to the calling scripts. Then you will isolate the large
lexical in that one module.

hi all :)
I spent some time this week adding hooks for template toolkit into
Devel::Profiler. you can find the code here

I'm not entirely convinced of the namespace, which is why it's not on

Not sure if its relevant, but from general Perl usage, Devel::Profiler
often fails to properly recognise function names if its USE statement
ends up being executed before your classes have been USEd.
If you use factories to instantiate objects from calculated class names,
those methods won't

Hi Perrin,
No, if the message you're getting is to use globals instead of

I was thinking, for large amounts of data, about using globals.

Hi folks,
Recently I needed to track down some slow page-load times on a

on it for a few hours, but then had to get an overall picture.
So I wrote a little script to merge multiple tmon.out files - help
