Subject: Apache::PerlRun::Flush Open Sourced From: Andrew Chen <achen@cobaltgroup.com> Date: Fri, 22 Sep 2000 14:13:03 -0700 (PDT) Hello all, I am happy to announce that open sourcing the Apache::PerlRun::Flush module has gracially been approved by proper channels here at Cobalt Group, and that it can be downloaded from: http://personal.cobaltgroup.com/~achen/Flush-0.95.tar.gz Please go through the documentation (both the README and the POD documentation) because this handler needs quite a bit of configuration. -- From the README: WHY WOULD YOU NEED THIS? If you have a large existing Perl codebase which is not 100% compatible with mod_perl, then you can get a lot the performance advantages by using this handler. Additionally, if there are some low-level packages that many other packages use (database packages, for example), you can also clean those and preload them for even higher performance. --- There's an existing memory leak as well, which has the workaround of using Apache::SizeLimit or using MaxChildRequests. If anyone has any ideas of why its happening, I would really appreciate feedback. Thanks to everyone on the list that initally helped me, especially Perrin Harkins and Honza Pazdziora, and also my fellow Cobaltians Matt Tucker and Rob Spearman. I am not on the modperl mailing list, so please cc: achen@cobaltgroup.com if you have comments. Thanks! ===
