in thread Embedded Perl - Memory leak

It was long time when I wrote Perl modules in C last time but IIRC av_push does increment the reference count. On the other hand I'm not sure why you need sv_free - av_delete should decrease reference counter of deleted SV itself. Try to add sv_dump() calls to check it yourself.
