=head1 NAME

Apache::Symdump - Symbol table snapshots

=head1 Synopsis

  PerlLogHandler Apache::Symdump

=head1 Description

C<Apache::Symdump> will record snapshots of the Perl symbol table for you to look at later.

It records them in C<ServerRoot/logs/symdump.$$.$n>.  Where C<$$> is
the process id and C<$n> is incremented each time the handler is run.
The C<diff> utility can be used to compare snapshots and get an idea
of what might be making a process grow.  Normally, new symbols come
from modules or scripts that were not preloaded, the Perl method
cache, etc.

  % diff -u symdump.$$.0 symdump.$$.1

=head1 Caveats

C<Apache::Symdump> does not cleanup up its snapshot files, do so
simply by:

  % rm logs/symdump.* logs/incdump.*
