Hi all, I'd like to request PAUSE registration to contribute the following:
Author: Mark D. Maunder Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: www.swiftcamel.com preferred userid: MAUNDER proposed namespace: Apache::ClientReloadCache Description of module: Control's greedy clients (browsers repeatedly hitting the same URL in rapid succession) under Apache/mod_perl by serving the page the client has already been served from a shared memory cache (so the client doesn't see the standard 503 error, but gets served actual content). This prevents a website's database from getting hammered when regenerating dynamic content for the greedy client. It has configurable options like number of requests before the client starts seeing cached content and can uniquely identify clients by a cookie or by IP address. It runs as a mod_perl content handler and requires an entry in httpd.conf and two lines in the users existing code. It can work as a chained handler (alongside an existing handler) or with any Apache::Registry scripts. Developed in response to IE users holding down the F5 key on our site. kind regards, Mark Maunder.
