Hello, I'm just entering automated perl testing, so have a question related to this topic. I want to test as much possible combinations as possible on a single machine, but there's no glue what really matters and what - not. So, currently i've chosen pairs mymalloc/nothreads and nomymalloc/threaded for perls 5.8.8, 5.8.9, 5.10.1, 5.11.2, on i386 and amd64 Freebsd systems. But, is this a correct choice? Shouldn't i, for example, add 64-bit-int options to any of theese configs, or make new triplets (so, varying 3 params)?
Probably, this should go to a new section of testing faq? Best regards, Sergey Aleynikov
