Re: [Perl-cache-users] Shared Memory on Windows 2000

[DeWitt C. <de...@un...>]

Hi:

I highly recommend using FileCache instead.  FileCache is faster,
scales better, is more portable, etc., than SharedMemoryCache.  There
is no reason not to chose FileCache over SharedMemoryCache.  If could
make the SharedMemoryCache go away then I would.

Hopefully this will help.  Cheers,

-DeWitt
