First of all thanks Wiggins and Alex,
For some reasons, I don't want to post the script.
Long story short, I was reading a big file using While statement that was
overloading the server. I used grep to solve this issue.
I am intent to make more changes within the script and would like to know
CPU usage/load on each step of modifying it.
Further, I think, the newbies like us should know CPU usage/load for their
developed scripts as it will help us to program better.
Okay, now again, I am on shared hosting of Ipowerweb.com. Do I have access
to /proc? Nope.
Any further help?
Any CPAN module for it? I tried to search but failed to find.
Once again thanks for your help.
Sara.
