Hi!

I've beeb discussing this with Eric and others. When I can find the time to write up the protocol specification for this I can add some simple methods for it so that we can add some native storage methods. The storage backend will be some sort abstraction like what we do with queue.

This is a common complaint it needs to be solved sooner then later.

Cheers,

I gave a well received talk on Gearman at the Italian Perl Workshop a
few days ago.
One of the questions from the audience was this: When a client sends a
task request and provides a large chunk of data to be processed, does
the data travel from client to server and to server to worker, or does
the server somehow establish a communication channel between client
and worker to minimize traffic?

Example:

gearman -w -f wordcount wc
gearman -f wordcount < hugefile

Does the content of hugefile travel from the client to the server and
then from the server to the worker?

Thanks

Giuseppe
