neither, read select, int $SLEEP_TIME is zero, which means block

Yeah... not true and not the issue here. I could put `tie(my $SLEEP_TIME, 'Tie::StdScalar', 5);` and my first example would still block indefinitely. select(...) isn't correctly working with tie()'s magic to get the right value of `$SLEEP_TIME` and instead figures it's undef which is supposed to block. That's the bug I think I'm seeing.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
