I was reading mod_perl2 User's Guide. In a perl startup file section, the phrase "pre-compile common constants" was mentioned. What does that mean?
<p>
The startup file also "pre-loads commonly used modules" which I understand, but I don't get what compiling constants means. Thanks for the help!
</p>
<p>Here is some relevant code (which I don't understand) from the startup file:</p>
<code>
use Apache2::Const -compile => 'OK';
use APR::Const -compile => ':common';
</code>
