This is a bug report for perl from sfandino@yahoo.com,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.35 running under perl v5.8.8.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please enter your report here]
The script below has two versions of the same algorithm, one using "for" and the other "map". The "map" version uses an unacceptable amount of memory.
--------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl
$| = 1;
my $max = 50000;
my @l = ('a'..'z');
my @keys;
if (1) {
# this version uses ~ 300MB
@keys = map { join '', map $l[rand @l], 0..71 } 0..$max;
} else {
# this version uses ~ 9MB
for (0..$max) {
push @keys, join '', map $l[rand @l], 0..71;
}
}
print "sleeping...\n";
sleep 100;
