Re^3: Need suggestion on problem to distribute work

Nowhere did I say to use the DB as the work queue. In Perl there are ways to push an item onto a "thread-safe" array. Likewise threads can get an item off of this array in a thread-safe way. I guess I should have said "shift off of the array" instead of "pop". I would process requests in roughly FIFO order.

At some point it will cross his mind. xD Also, I was just building on your suggestion rather than top posting. So don't take it as a criticism or think I was actually talking to you.	[reply]
