nysus has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I've been bitten twice now by my crappy code leaking file handles like a sieve, costing me several hours of time trying to track down the bugs. Is there a way to report how many open file handles are open at once so I can know when I'm being wasteful? Thanks!
