Re^2: Threading Equivalent to this Parallel::ForkManager Example

This would seem to be an equivalent:

Not so. It is fatally flawed.

Your code is directly equivalent to:

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use threads;

my $n = 0;
while (<DATA>) {
    print 'Thread ', ++$n, ': ', $_;
}

Ie. It exhibits no parallelism whatsoever.

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
