diotalevi has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
blakem brings up perl's method cache in Re: Now you see it, now you don't and now I'm wondering if there is any way to inspect it. Most of the things I do are pretty prosaic and probably are handled by it, somethings are pretty wacky and are *maybe* handled by it. But as it stands I have no way to know either way. So is there any way to get insight into this thing? Where does it live in the source? I haven't noticed it around anywhere while poking through the source. Can I get runtime statistics on what is and isn't in the cache? Does it partition by object, class or some other unspecified criteria? When are things expired from it?
