File uploads are processed with CGI.pm during Apache::ASP initialization
while creating the $Request object. So you need to mark the time before
this object is created, and you can only do this before ASP starts to
run, or outside of the Apache::ASP init process.
To do this, one might ( or define better as a
module if this syntax does not work ) :
PerlInitHandler "sub { Apache->request->pnotes('InitTime', time()) }"
Then later on, say in Script_OnStart, you can reference
Apache->request->pnotes('InitTime') for a time difference.
