Parallel-ForkManager (0.7.5)

Takes the drudgery out of forkery, leaving more readable code. Good stuff.

Even though I know how to use fork(2) directly I find that Parallel::ForkManager improves the readability of my code. It hides the gory details of bookkeeping of running processes whitout hiding whats going on.

It helps me a lot!
I've found callback functions useful for output some info while script's running under apache webserver. Because apache kills cgi scripts due to inactivity

I routinely need to spawn a limited number of parallel forks to drive automated telnet sessions to hundreds of cisco routers. I wish I had known about this module earlier... this module makes the task as simple as adding five lines of code. It is also quite stable, I have not had any problems.
