Re: modperl / apache13 memory footprints on 32 adn 64 bit servers

Well, some poking aronud by the sysadmins and they found teh perl
was compiled with

> MYMALLOC PERL_MALLOC_WRAP USE_64_BIT_ALL USE_64_BIT_INT USE_FAST_STDIO
> USE_LARGE_FILES USE_PERLIO

So it was using 64 bit variables for INT and maybe some other uneeded
things.
So that might be a big part of it.
