+dev (sorry for the duplicate; my first attempt failed due to not being a subscriber).
Keeping modules-dev on CC if that's appropriate. Thanks, Jeff, I was wondering if there was a units issue there. I'm still wondering if anyone can describe the meaning of that argument in more detail. Is that related to my multiget APR_TIMEUP returns? The phrase "time to live of client connection" confuses me. Would it be inaccurate to instead say "the maximum number of seconds apr_memcache is willing to wait for a single operation? Or does it mean *both*, implying that a fresh TCP/IP connection is made for every new operation, but will stay alive for only a certain number of seconds. I have a practical question about how I release software given this change. Our module (mod_pagespeed) is documented to run with Apache 2.2 and Apache 2.4. It seems like for 2.2 I should probably multiple my desired argument by a million. Same with for 2.4.x and earlier, for some value of x. How should I work this in my code? Should I query the version number using an apr utility or something and multiply by a million in certain cases? What's the best practice calling this function for module developers? -Josh On Wed, Sep 26, 2012 at 6:20 PM, Jeff Trawick <traw...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Wed, Sep 26, 2012 at 5:38 PM, Joshua Marantz <jmara...@google.com> > wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I've been having some success with the apr_memcache_* functions.
