You don't really do memory management in Perl. Proper programming can reduce the
amount of memory that you use, though. Have you read "perldoc -q memory?"

Maybe I worded my question wrong and it should be Memory Allocation
and monitor.
I know I can allocate memory space by using ` $#arr = 999 ` but i am
not sure how much memory it consumes. Basically my goal is to figure
out how to set the max memory a variable can use and how to monitor
when the max has been reached.
I did read the perldoc but that didnt tell me anything about reserving
memory, just to be carefull with it.
