BSD::Sysctl offers a native Perl interface for fetching sysctl values that
|
|
describe the kernel state of BSD-like operating systems. This is around 80
|
|
times faster than scraping the output of the sysctl(8) program.
|
|
|
|
This module handles the conversion of symbolic sysctl variable names to the
|
|
internal numeric format, and this information, along with the details of how
|
|
to format the results, are cached. Hence, the first call to sysctl requires
|
|
three system calls, however, subsequent calls require only one call.
