NAME File::Cache DESCRIPTION File::Cache implements an object store where data is persisted across processes in the filesystem. It was written to compliment IPC::Cache. Where IPC::Cache is faster for small numbers of simple objects, File::Cache tends towards being more performant when caching large numbers of complex objects. REQUIREMENTS Storable Digest::MD5. INSTALLATION perl Makefile.PL make make test make install USAGE see perldoc File::Cache SEE ALSO IPC::Cache
