Devel::MAT::Dumper provides the memory-dumping function that creates a heap dump
file which can later be read by Devel::MAT::Dumpfile. It provides a single
function which is not exported, which writes a file to the given path.
The dump file will contain a representation of every SV in Perl's arena,
providing information about pointers between them, as well as other information
about the state of the process at the time it was created. It contains a
snapshot of the process at that moment in time, which can later be loaded and
analysed by various tools using Devel::MAT::Dumpfile.
This module used to be part of the main Devel::MAT distribution but is now in
its own one so that it can be installed independently on servers or other
locations where perl processes need to inspected but analysis tools can be run
elsewhere.

This is the FreeBSD Ports Collection. For an easy to use
WEB-based interface to it, please see:
https://www.FreeBSD.org/ports
For general information on the Ports Collection, please see the
FreeBSD Handbook ports section which is available from:
https://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html
for the latest official version
or:
The ports(7) manual page (man ports).
These will explain how to use ports and packages.
If you would like to search for a port, you can do so easily by
saying (in /usr/ports):
make search name="<name>"
or:
make search key="<keyword>"
which will generate a list of all ports matching <name> or <keyword>.
make search also supports wildcards, such as:
make search name="gtk*"
For information about contributing to FreeBSD ports, please see the Porter's
Handbook, available at:

NOTE: This tree will GROW significantly in size during normal usage!
The distribution tar files can and do accumulate in /usr/ports/distfiles,
and the individual ports will also use up lots of space in their work
subdirectories unless you remember to "make clean" after you're done
building a given port. /usr/ports/distfiles can also be periodically
cleaned without ill-effect.
