Saw that and assumed you were write: Perl definitely has to open the file and look at the first 512 to 1024 bytes, and Apache's finfo structure is just stat-able info in varying degrees from the OS itself. I just poked at it with strace: my $s = $r->lookup_uri($uri); warn "Doing -T finfo\n" ; my $t = -T $s->finfo ; warn $t ? 1 : 0, "\n" ; results in: stat("/home/barries/mpdh/www/htdocs/foo.html", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0664,st_size=0, ...}) = 0 write(2, "Doing -T finfo\n", 15) = 15 open("/home/barries/mpdh/www/lib/5.6.1/i686-linux",O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 4 fstat(4, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0775, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 read(4, 0xbffff3cc, 512) = -1 EISDIR (Is a directory) close(4) = 0 write(2, "0\n", 2) = 2 Pretty neat... - Barrie
