Re: destroy xml object

  It's a memory leak. I have fixed the leak I think. I
  had a hash of XML::LibXML::Element object $multiple and
  a element $single_element, and I said

| my $to_add_element=$multiple->{$id} or next;
| $single_element->appendChild($to_add_element);

  This code leaks memory when you look through a bunch 
  of $single_elements. From my limited understanding,
  $single_element can not be destroyed because it references
  $to_add_element, which comes from the $multiple which is 
  constant throughout the loop. The solution is to say

| my $to_add_element=$multiple->{$id} or next;
| $to_add_element=$to_add_element->cloneNode(1);
| $single_element->appendChild($to_add_element);
