[Nagios-devel] MaxRequestsPerChild workalike for embedded perl?

Post by Guest »

Group,
I'm in a situation where I really could benefit from the speed of using
the embedded Perl interpreter in Nagios, but I can't afford the nasty memory
leaking it does. I was wondering if a feature similar to Apache's
'MaxRequestsPerChild' could be implemented? Something to simply flush and
reload the embedded Perl environment after X many Perl plugin executions.
Judging by previous threads on the nagios-users list, I don't believe
I'm the only one having issues with memory leaking through embedded Perl.
I've avoided declaring global variables/etc in my plugins, but dispite what
I do I can't seem to stop the leak.

Thanks for you thoughts,
