Description of problem:
Every time perl includes a file with "use utf8" and text constants it leaks
memory.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-5.16.3-266.fc19.x86_64
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run the test program below
2. watch as memory usage grows
Here is the test program:
-------------------------
my $mem = 0;
sub report_memory () {
my $next_mem = qx[ps -p $$ -o size=]+0;
printf "%+8d = %8d K\n", $next_mem-$mem, $next_mem; $mem = $next_mem;
}
for (0..1e5) {
do 'x.inc';
report_memory unless $_ % 1e4;
}
-------------------------
x.inc contains:
-------------------------
use utf8;
$x='x';
-------------------------
