Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Here is the scenario. I have a global hash variable in mod_perl and I use IPC::Shareable module to control the content.To begin with the hash variable is loaded with values from the database by calling a function x(). And I want to call this function every 30 minutes to get the latest from the DB. How would I do that? I am using Apache/mod_perl. Any help is appreciated..
