Re^2: Net::SSH::Perl doesn't like long commands

hangs at some point between 8000 and 10000 characters.

What's the betting that it is somewhere around 8192, the size of PerlIO IO buffers since 5.1(2|4|?).

Maybe someone how has reproduced it could try disabling the buffering and see if that changes anything.

I see syswrite calls in this code http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/SCHWIGON/Net-SSH-Perl-1.35/lib/Net/SSH/Perl/Packet.pm Looks like it's not protected from EAGAIN and from case when syswrite didn't write all data. sysread calls are protected.	[reply]

It is very unlikely that buffering may be the root of the problem because of the way the SSH protocol is internally structured in several layers. A buffering issue would have manifested itself as a wider set of problems.	[reply]

Setting $\|++ doesn't help unfortunately (and the value on my boxes are different, see above... :/ ).	[reply]

Setting $\|++ doesn't help Worth a shot as it doesn't involve a lot of effort. (You do know that for $\|++ to affect the socket in question, it needs to be selected first?)
