Hi,
I have a problem using Time::Piece with mod_perl.
If Time::Piece is loaded on startup, either by startup.pl, in
PerlModule, or by being used in another module. It appears in %INC.
In a cgi-perl script running under Apache::Registry:
'use Time::Piece' does not cause the file to be re-read.

What I meant was that I didn't find anything indicating that it should
behave differently than, say, PerlRequire.
Hello,
I have a high volume application that basically needs to keep track of a
couple counters for the number of times certain requests were made and
update a MySQL db.
Unfortunately, it's high volume enough that it's no longer possible to
keep these counters in the databases updated in real ti

MySQL will be a lot faster than the tied

I would just use BerkeleyDB for this, which can easil

This probably means you have a permissions problem on

I would recommend mod_proxy because you already know how to run apache,
and it can run useful things like mod_rewrite, mod_ssl, mod_auth_tkt,
etc. I benchmarked them a VERY long time ago and foun

But I am transfixed by this problem... I can't seem to get each forked

interpreters, *and* one thread in each process that runs in the
background doing housekeeping. I can think of numerous things that th

Hi Perrin,
Thanks for the feedback. I've been meaning to find a better alternative.
I think many programmers writing standard cgi scripts are scared off
from using the Apache::Session modules because of the chosen namespace,
although I understand that it's possible to use them outside of Apache.

Hi,
Well, the problem was my fault. :/ I had a bug in a generic base class
I use that makes it easier to build classes that work both inside and
outside mod_perl.
For those of you who are interested, this solutions works well. By
using PerlChildInit handler to create a thread to maintain a sh
hmmm... prefork.pm was created for this sort of problem, when some form
of run-time loader is being silly, and everything should really just be
loaded in at compile-time.
I wonder if it's time to investigating adding autoloader support to
prefork.pm some how.
For anyone else that has issues at
Is there a way to do large queries that return lots of data without
having my apache process grow by the equivalent size in ram of the
data returned? The only thing I can think of is to run a separate
script outside of mod perl for queries like this.

can do it better?
