SpeedyCGI is a way to run perl scripts persistently, which can make them run
|
|
much more quickly. A script can be made to to run persistently by changing
|
|
the interpreter line at the top of the script from:
|
|
|
|
#!${PREFIX}/bin/perl
|
|
|
|
to
|
|
|
|
#!${PREFIX}/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/bin/speedy
|
|
|
|
After the script is initially run, instead of exiting, the perl interpreter
|
|
is kept running. During subsequent runs, this interpreter is used to handle
|
|
new executions instead of starting a new perl interpreter each time. A very
|
|
fast frontend program, written in C, is executed for each request. This fast
|
|
frontend then contacts the persistent Perl process, which is usually already
|
|
running, to do the work and return the results.
