Re: [Speedycgi-users] Where to go for examples...

[Sam H. <sa...@da...>]

Most code can be written without using those methods or any other methods
in the CGI::SpeedyCGI module.  

In SpeedyCGI your perl code is run several times before finally being
removed from memory.  In normal perl, you just run once, and then the code
is removed from memory.

Both of these methods are similar to using "END" statements.
If you register a "cleanup" function, it's executed at the end of each
run of your perl code.  A shutdown_handler is run right before your perl
code is removed altogether (ie after all the runs of your perl code are done,
right before your perl code is removed from memory).
