RE: Could perl fastCGI load an external executable prog ramme as a daemon process using "system"?

you can do this by creating a shared memory segment and bring the whole
dictionary to shared memory segment at the start of program itself.
This shared memory segment will be there in memory till you explicitly
delete that or you restart the machine. If you are doing any write
operations on the shared memory segment, then you need to preserve the
concurrency by using the semaphores. 
 
or you can use some third party libraries like libmm to get all this work
done.
 
Hope this helps you.

Subject: [FASTCGI] Could perl fastCGI load an external executable programme
as a daemon process using "system"?


In my script there is an external C programme , I have to call it every time
when the script runs . 
But the C programme needs to load big dictionary , the time consuming is
more than 5 seconds .
What should I do to make it more efficient , could I modify the C programme
so that when it runs for the first time , the dictionary is loaded into the
memory and never free until service is shutdown , or shall I try mod_perl to
write a module in c ? I'm confused , for I'm a beginner to CGI programming .
