Hi,
I was thinking of a way to improve the speed of an e-mailing script where a bottleneck has arisen because of serial SMTP sending.
I'd like to "parallelize" the processing of the address array into 2-4 parallel processes, each sending via SMTP their parts of the array.
How would I split processing of the @email_addresses like this? create 2-4 sub-arrays? fork the sending once the sub-array's are populated?
Basically I set the e-mail message var's once (body, subject, from) and then do a foreach loop on an array of e-mail addresses, sending the message sequentially.
Looking fwd to some Monk-wisdome

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
