On Unix platforms including Cygwin, the MCE::Shared module spawns a shared-manager process unless threads is present.

1 for the main process
1 for the shared-manager process (a thread when threads is present)
4 for the hobo processes

The Sereal modules (Decoder/Encoder) are loaded automatically. Basically, the Storable module is not loaded when Sereal 3.015 or later is available. The following are recommended modules. IO::FDPass allows the passing of the fd descriptor while the shared-manager is running.

## MCE and MCE::Shared including MCE::Hobo

1. Sereal::Decoder 3.015+
2. Sereal::Encoder 3.015+
3. Sereal (ok for completeness, but MCE does not load this)

## MCE::Shared applies to Condvar, Handle, and Queue

1. IO::FDPass 1.2+

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
