Description

Perl developers can detect reference cycles in objects that may prevent memory from being reclaimed. This is useful when investigating leaks in long-running scripts, services, or test suites.

It is a debugging tool and library. Results need developer interpretation because not every cycle is a bug, and fixing leaks often requires changes in object ownership.

How to run

find-cycle

Commands: find-cycle
