Hi,
I've read about the prefork-engine for the test-server in another
thread, which could be very useful for me (our outsourced
codemonkeys sometimes produce VERY SLOW controllers and together
with multiple ajax-request, this means waiting ;)).
About usage I found only this:
$ cpan Catalyst:Engine::HTTP::Prefork
$ CATALYST_ENGINE='HTTP::Prefork' script/myapp_server.pl
Amazingly, this doesn't change anything at all with my app, after
starting there are still only two processes (some kind of supervisor
I think and the real server process) and the requests are served one-
by-one. Even more confusing, if I set CATALYST_ENGINE to 'Whatever',
I get no error message or something.
Is there required more to use it, besides installing the module from
CPAN?
That should be it. Set the env var CATALYST_PREFORK_DEBUG=1 to verify
it's working. You should see a lot of output, i.e.:
2009/04/14-07:32:28 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Prefork (type
Net::Server::PreFork) starting! pid(65538)
