Apache::Symdump(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Apache::Symdump(3)
NAME
Apache::Symdump - Symbol table snapshots
SYNOPSIS
PerlLogHandler Apache::Symdump
DESCRIPTION
Apache:Symdump uses Devel::Symdump to record snapshots of the Perl
symbol table in ServerRoot/logs/symdump.$$.$n Where $$ is the process
id and $n is incremented each time the handler is run. The diff
utility can be used to compare snapshots and get an idea of what might
be making a process grow. Normally, new symbols come from modules or
scripts that were not preloaded, the Perl method cache, etc.
% diff -u symdump.$$.0 symdump.$$.1
CAVEATS
Apache::Symdump does not cleanup up its snapshot files, do so simply
by:
% rm logs/symdump.* logs/incdump.*
