I am working with Perl for some months now.
As for now, my scripts work but they are far from being perfect.
I would now like to optimize the memory usage, thus I am looking for a way to break down the memory usage per variable/hash.
Is there a way to see how much memory a variable uses?
Devel::Size or Devel::Size::Report can be used to get memory usage for a variable/structure.
You might want to check perl guts illustrated to see what the numbers really mean.
