Good point. The reason mod_perl does not meet my needs is because the code these scripts will be running does a lot of forking. The scripts do a lot of qx()'ing and system()'ing and such. And while I have tried to influence those writing these scripts not to do this, the problem persists. After all there are some good reasons to qx(). I tried mod_perl for quite some time and while much much faster I was getting strange behavior from Apache. Once I moved to CGI the strange behavior (i.e. defunct processes, unkillable children(hung on sockets), out of semaphore space errors, etc) cleared up completely. That is why I begrudgingly moved off of mod_perl.

My base problem here is that I have a number of scripts that use a large complex of code. That complex of code is so large that this perl -MBigModuleTree -e 1 takes an average of 1.1 seconds. Yeah, it is pretty bad. So I am looking for a way to preload the BigModuleTree.pm thus reducing the time it takes to execute these scripts and also hopefully bringing the load down on the box.
Hope this clears things up a bit.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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.
