I noticed that when I load them via startup.pl the handlers that use them don't complain that they don't have the use statements within the module code and still work as normal. While this works for you, it's a bad practice. Why? Because other people using your code may not have these modules loaded from startup.pl. Won't loading them for every handler put an instance of it in memory over and over again though? Or will Perl realize that its already loaded and not load it again? How would this behave in MPM threadpool? Jamie

I like to put use() statements for all required modules in each module that needs them. It's good documentation. When you tune your system for performance, you will put all of these in startup.pl to improve shared memory, but there's no need to take them out of the other modules: use() staments for modules that have already been loaded simply skip the require() part and run the import(). - Perrin
