in thread make perl release memory

If you open and close the same window many times does the used memory keep growing? If not then there's no leak in that part. It's next to impossible to prove a program has no leaks (especialy in Perl), but if you run it for long and do not see a problem I don't think it's necessary to care much :-)

As someone (sorry don't remember who) has in his/her signature: Worry only about the things you have to implement.
