CGI::Cache 1.01

Perl extension to help cache output of time- intensive CGI scripts so that
subsequent visits to such scripts will not cost as much time.


WARNING! The interface in version 1.01 is incompatible with the interface of
version 1.00 and earlier. You will need to modify any existing scripts you
have to use the new interface if you install this version.


INSTALLATION

To install this package, change to the directory where you
unarchived this distribution and type the following:

	perl Makefile.PL
	make
	make test
	make install

During the 'make test', there are some tests that take a while
longer to run. While testing that caching is working, CPU times
are being recorded on some badly written code to see that
performance will actually be increased on subsequent visits.
Don't panic. It may take a couple of minutes to run, depending
on your system.

If you do not have root access on your machine, then you may
not have the ability to install this module in the standard
perl library path. You may direct the installation into your
own space, e.g.,

	perl Makefile.PL LIB='/home/userid/lib'

or perhaps the entire installation, e.g.,

	perl Makefile.PL PREFIX='/home/userid'

If you make the installation into your own directory, then
remember that you must tell perl where to search for modules
before trying to 'use' them. For example:

	use lib '/home/userid/lib';
	use CGI::Cache;
