Re: Gdk Pixbufloader not freeing memory

I had a problem using the pixbufloader with Gtkperl.  Basically the loader
object doesn't seem to be releasing memory even when it is explicitly undef'd.
I wrote a small test script to try to isolate the problem.  It creates a window
with a single button.  Every time you click the button an image (hard coded in
the script) will be loaded using the pixbufloader.  If I run this program and
watch the memory usage with top, I can see that the memory utilization for the
script just keeps increasing.  Has anyone seen this before?  Is there a
workaround?

is the memory released after the program (ie perl interpreter) is terminated?


Yes, the memory gets cleaned up when the program exits.
