memory collection

Hi,

I have five subroutines in a script.

However, if I call them one by one in order, I have
memory problem. Instead, I call the first subroutine
then exit the script. Next, I run the script only
calling the 2nd subroutine and so on. It works fine.

As you know, I have to run the script five times in
order for all the subroutines to be done.

My question, how can I run the five subroutines one by
one at once? how do I claim the memory allocated to
each subroutine?

Sounds like you're using package (global) variables and not cleaning them up.
Are you using "my&quot; (lexical) variables defined within each subroutine only?

And what is the URL where you posted your code?
