I sympathize, but I think you need to consider this: Fedora's Perl (like Redhat's before it) is compiled with threading enabled, which is both slower, more memory heave and less stable than a non-threaded Perl. I've had enough direct experience with this on the Krang project to be able to state it unequivocally: if you don't need threaded Perl then you don't want a threaded Perl. -sam --------------------------------------------------------------------- Web Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=cgiapp&r=1&w=2 To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
