We're out of luck there..
Here's what Wietse has to say on the topic:

However, my DBI setup also had a memory leak, which I traced to a
not-quite-kosher prepare_cached implementation down the line.  Replacing
"prepare_cached" in sqlgrey with "prepare" globally fixed it for me.  Maybe
just maybe it helps for somebody else as well..

good luck,
