I've simplified the test case. It seems that Cygwin perl can't handle
too much memory. For instance:
$ perl -e '$a="a"x(200 * 1024 * 1024); sleep 9'
$ perl -e '$a="a"x(1024 * 1024);my %b; $b{$_}=$a for(1..400);sleep 9'
$ perl -e '$a="a"x(50 * 1024 * 1024);$b=$a;$c=$a;$d=$a;$e=$a;sleep 10'
Yeah. Set heap_chunk_in_mb to include all available memory, and I'm sure
you'll find that Cygwin perl works the same too.
After setting heap_chunk_in_mb to 2048, all those tests passed. Thanks! But
I still don't understand why C isn't bound by heap_chunk_in_mb and perl is.
