using NetSNMP::agent with SNMP::MIB

Hello all,

in the past I've done agent extension by using C, mib2c, and compiling
in a MIB C module.

Now I'm facing the same task but this time in Perl. I will use
NetSNMP::agent to implement a sub-agent, registered on our private
enterprice OID/branch.

The speed at which I will be able to refresh all MIB data is quite
slow... so I'll need generic temporary 'in memory' storage for MIB
information. This temporary storage will be used to respond to GETs,
while some asynchronous process refreshes the 'in memory' values at
diferent frequency.

I'm considering adding in the SNMP module (SNMP::MIB hash) to help as a
temporary buffer for MIB values. It seems to be clean approach.(!?!)

Am I going right ? Am I to excpect any big issues when trying to
integrate the 2 modules... ? Or is this considered an incorrect
approach ?

Apreciate any feedback, apointers to documents, best practices..
Thank you
Joao
