I tend to use it a lot, but from time to time, which is basically EVERY time I look at /tmp, I notice bunches of stale entries from Cache::FileCaches - and that's on the development server. So how exactly is the auto_purge meant to be used - the documentation is very hazy on that point (sure I can patch it - but you have to explain it to me first :)), and I just got lost when looknig at the module source. So: 1)What is it meat to do 2) How should it be used 3) What about constistancy issues between processes - when will perl forget what's in the cache and not clean it up?
Thanks, Issac
