Hi All,

 

Not sure exactly a memory leak or not. I was porting my nagios from
Redhat 7.3 to CentOS 5.4 and I observed the memory usage was gradually
increasing on the new centos box. 

 

When I ran all my perl plugins with Valgrind -3.2.1, all the plugins
complained about a memory leak. Not sure if it's a leak or if its fault
with valgrind way of evaluating things. 

 

I have attached valgrind output when i ran a simple hello-world.pl on my
centos box.  

 

I shall greatly appreciate if anyone have faced similar behaviour.

 

Thanks,

Jai Prakash
