Hi,
Apache::Registry slurps in your Perl modules as strings and
then evals them.
I thought I could save some RAM by stripping out comments and
whitespace before the eval step - so I quickly wrote a Registry-like
handler that strips comments.
Alas, the experiment failed - I saw no difference in RAM usage at
all!
I suspect that mod_perl is stripping them for me. But isn't a
large string allocated in RAM prior to the eval?
Are there any merits in a comment stripping pre-processing step
in a Registry-like handler?
