Hi everyone, Some have been wondering if anyone has used ithreads in a production application yet. Well, I have on a fairly hefty application (125+ threads) on a hefty box (4-cpu linux with 4G physical RAM). It's working well, although the memory leak problem is very apparent. I've ended up restarting the program once a day to prevent it from dying in an inelegant manner.
Anyway, I'm very interested in Elizabeth's forks.pm module. I'm wondering how it compares to ithreads. I see that forks is much better with memory, but how about performance? Besides memory usage, is there any reason to use one over the other? And one last question: will Thread::Queue and Thread::Semaphore work with forks.pm? Thanks, -Allen
