Is this verbose output from the legacy program specific to the Linux environment? Not.
What is being done with the output on a match, is it maintained or discarded? Discard.
[ Do I need to any special action to clear the accumulating output from the program spawned by Expect?
After a match I usually take some action like saving matched pattern in an array, responding toprogram with some string etc. ]
What is the memory utilization compared to the other platforms?
I have notmade any measurements and/or comparisons against any other platform. Everywhere elese, the application is
behaving normally.
The only platform specific problems we've had with Expect.pm under Linux was a process count utilization.
Can it cause the perl executable to monopolize one of the CPUs? Can you please educate me on this process
count utilization.

: loquacious and writes
: a lot of stuff on the STDOUT. Perhaps thousands of lines are being
