Re: Cache::FastMmap

Yes, that's another thing I should change. I thought it would need 5.8.0+ 
for the UTF-8 support, but from reports I've had, it apparently works fine 
on 5.6.0 and 5.6.1 so I'll change the "use 5.008" to "use 5.006".

I also added this documentation note, which caught me recently that others 
might like to keep an eye on as well...

Because Cache::FastMmap mmap's a shared file into your processes memory
space, this can make each process look quite large, even though it's just
mmap'd memory that's shared between all processes that use the cache,
and may even be swapped out if the cache is getting low usage.
However, the OS will think your process is quite large, which might
mean you hit some BSD::Resource or 'ulimits' you set previously that you
thought were sane, but aren't anymore.

This one is more or less just out of curosity -
I noticed when trying to install on one of our webservers that
FastMmap requires perl 5.8.0 or later. Is it impossible to use with
earlier versions?
