NAME

OpenInteract::Cache::IPC -- Implement caching of metadata via IPC for quick access

DESCRIPTION

We use shared-memory to cache metadata from the main cache. Normally this will be something like a timestamp associated with a bunch of data. If the timestamp does not match, the main cache is signaled to return undef instead of the data it holds.

TO DO

- Actually use and test!

- Will this work on Win32?

BUGS

None known.
