I have a daemon that essentially does: $spamtest = Mail::SpamAssassin->new;
while() { $mail = Mail::SpamAssassin::NoMailAudit->new( nomime => 1, data => [EMAIL PROTECTED]); $status = $spamtest->check($mail); $status->finish(); } and I've found that it continually consumes memory. I can send a 20 line sample program if it's instructive. Is there something else I should be doing to clean up between iterations, or is this a bug? I've RTFM, but maybe I'm missing something. The stuff in the while is actually in a subroutine so garbage should be collected on each iteration. Also, undefing spamtest every N iterations actually makes it consume memory even more! I'm using SA 2.55-3 on RH9 w/ perl 5.8.0. Also happens w/ SA 2.44 and 2.54 (haven't tried others), perl 5.6.1, AIX or Linux. # rpm -qi spamassassin-2.55-3 Name : spamassassin Relocations: /usr Version : 2.55 Vendor: Red Hat, Inc.
