Hi Tim,
Welcome to mod_perl!
Thanks Perrin!
I would like to cache this information somehow so
that the authorization handler doesn't need to perform these operations
over.
Put it in $r->pnotes() and it will be available in later phases.
Could I not just set a global variable in my authentication handler that
the authorization handler can then access?
I am already using IPC::Shareable in the authentication handler
and would prefer to not use that mechanism.
I recommend avoiding IPC::Shareable for anything. Cache::FastMmap is a
lot faster.
Why avoid? Strictly for performance sake? Cache::FastMmap looks
promising, but I need something where I have more control over when the
cache entries are expired. Personally, I am not crazy about using shared
memory as well, but in my C module I used an array of berkeley DB's, and
while it worked and performace was fine for my application - I fear that
it wouldn't scale well.
Thanks,
Tim
