Re: Finding the size of a variable

in reply to Finding the size of a variable

On a related note, I saw Doug MacEachern do a very cool demo using B::Size with Apache::Status. This allowed him to browse through the code which had been compiled into a mod_perl instance and (among other things) see what ops a chunk of Perl compiled down to. The fact that it was point and click accessible using a browser meant it had a very low barrier to entry.

I saw him do something similar a few years ago at one of the OSCONs. Definitely really cool, and I looked at his stuff first before I started this module. It didn't, unfortunately, do what I needed at the time, though the optree walking stuff is likely what's needed to finish up most of the lingering problems with CVs.	[reply]
