Ok. Yes seems to be memory leak case.
But then what is the trigger or is it always expanding in every run?

If you know the trigger which is causing the issue, you would easily zero in on to the affected code area.

So far I'm not aware if Valgrind could be attached to a running process like gdb but I know that it could generate good enough stats with function wise memory usage reports.

Need to look at the Valgrind manual.

Why, btw, you wanted to attach the daemon when you could have just run the same in the Valgrind environment from the command line itself?

NAME

       Test::Valgrind::Command::PerlScript - A Test::Valgrind command that invokes a perl script.

VERSION

       Version 1.13

DESCRIPTION

       This command is meant to abstract the argument list handling of a "perl" script.

METHODS

       This class inherits Test::Valgrind::Command::Perl.

   "new file => $file, [ taint_mode => $taint_mode ], ..."
       The package constructor, which takes several options :

       o   $file is the path to the "perl" script you want to run.

	   This option is mandatory.

       o   $taint_mode is actually handled by the parent class Test::Valgrind::Command::Perl, but it gets special handling in this subclass : if
	   "undef" is passed (which is the default), the constructor will try to infer its right value from the shebang line of the script.

       Other arguments are passed straight to "Test::Valgrind::Command::Perl->new".

   "file"
       Read-only accessor for the "file" option.

SEE ALSO

       Test::Valgrind, Test::Valgrind::Command::Perl.
