note rowdog <p> Hrm, I hadn't realized that [mod://WWW::Mechanize::FAQ] says that</p> <blockquote> <i>Mech keeps a history of every page, and the state it was in. It actually keeps a clone of the full Mech object at every step along the way.</a></i> </blockquote> <p>So, there's a clone for each step. I'm kind of in over my head here but I don't see anything wrong with your workaround, as long as you're not sending requests from a bunch of different threads or something silly like that.</p> 885780 886178
