This is weird. If I simply run:
#! /bin/sh
while true; do
sleep 5
done
exit 0
then it builds up memory (as shown by top). This happens whether run as
root or an ordinary user. Same thing if I use ash. If I use perl (and
modify the script obviously) then it doesn't happen - the memory remains
static. If I run the same thing on my home (RH8) PC or my work (RH 7.1)
PC then it doesn't happen - the memory remains static. I see little
choice but to rewrite the thing in perl!
Anyone any ideas on this?
John.
