Brian,

Tracking down these memory problems is really tough, especially in
Perl.  I would continue using the script you use for now.

I do think adding temperature would be a useful addition and within
the scope of orcallator.  If you can add this to orcallator.se, which
is written in a C-like language, that would be great.

If you can get the temperature information without spawning another
process from orcallator.se, that would be ideal.  What program is
commonly used to get this data?

Regards,
Blair
