I understand that 'out of memory!' would flash when the buffer is not autoflushed in such cases....
I'm not aware of any such cases. That doesn't mean that they don't exist, merely that I've never heard of any.
Buffers tend to be something like 4k on modern Linux-style systems. I have trouble imagining a system on which saving 4k is the difference between completing a task and running out of memory, at least with Perl. (If I had to write such a program, I'd use C and forbid dynamic allocation.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
