This module provides a shared memory cache accessed as a
|
|
tied hash.
|
|
Shared memory is an area of memory that is available to
|
|
all processes. It is accessed by choosing a key, the
|
|
ipc_key arguement to tie. Every process that accesses
|
|
shared memory with the same key gets access to the same
|
|
region of memory. In some ways it resembles a file
|
|
system, but it is not hierarchical and it is resident in
|
|
memory. This makes it harder to use than a filesystem but
|
|
much faster. The data in shared memory persists until the
|
|
machine is rebooted or it is explicitely deleted.
