HTTP::Proxy::Engine::Legacy(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTTP::Proxy::Engine::Legacy(3)

HTTP::Proxy::Engine::Legacy - The "older" HTTP::Proxy engine

    my $proxy = HTTP::Proxy->new( engine => 'Legacy' );

This engine reproduces the older child creation algorithm of HTTP::Proxy.

Angelos Karageorgiou "<angelos@unix.gr>" reports:

I got the Legacy engine to work really fast under "Win32" with the following trick:

    max_keep_alive_requests(1);
    max_clients(120);
    $HTTP::VERSION(1.0); # just in case

and it smokes.

It seems that forked children are really slow when calling select for handling "keep-alive"d requests!

The module defines the following methods, used by HTTP::Proxy main loop:
start()
Initialise the engine.
run()
Implements the forking logic: a new process is forked for each new incoming TCP connection.
stop()
Reap remaining child processes.

The following method is used by the engine internally:

reap_zombies()
Process the dead child processes.
