Hi everyone,

I tried to make a while loop with multiple threads by using Parallel::ForkManager.
It's a very easy module, which seems to work fine.
I only have one problem. When I run the script my cpu runs to 100% and it keeps on draining more memory.
I hope you perlmonks can fix this.
BTW, I run it with ActivePerl 5.10.

Thx in advance

use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Request;
use Parallel::ForkManager;

$ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
$ua->timeout(2);
$ua->agent("Mozilla/6.0");

$pm = new Parallel::ForkManager(10);

open(LIST,"lan.txt");

while (<LIST>) {
    $pm->start and next;
    chomp($_);
    $url = "http://".$_."/index.php";
    $req = HTTP::Request->new('GET',$url);
    $res = $ua->request($req);
    $content= $res->content;
    if ($content =~ /ok/) {
        print $_."\n";
    }
    $pm->finish;
}

$pm->wait_all_children;

close(LIST);

exit;
