Perrin Harkins:  "Efficient Sharing of Data among Processes"

Whether it's for building a cache of frequently used data or storing the
state of user sessions on the server, choosing the right tool for
efficient sharing of data can be tricky and most of the time it is done
with a mix of anecdotal evidence and guesswork.

This talk examines a number of different options for sharing data that
are available on CPAN, from IPC::Shareable to Cache::Cache, and presents
performance metrics for various levels of concurrent access and mixes of
reading and writing. It also covers relative ease of installation and
use. Attendees will learn how to choose the right tool for their own
situations.

automated tests in Perl.
