Re^2: Finding bottlenecks in the code

Well, I installed Devel::Cover and got, really nothing.

perl -MDevel::Cover index.cgi
Devel::Cover 0.53: Collecting coverage data for branch, condition, pod
+, statement, subroutine and time.
Selecting packages matching:
Ignoring packages matching:
    /Devel/Cover[./]
Ignoring packages in:
    .
    /Library/Perl
    /Library/Perl/5.8.1
    /Library/Perl/5.8.1/darwin-thread-multi-2level
    /System/Library/Perl/5.8.1
    /System/Library/Perl/5.8.1/darwin-thread-multi-2level
..
bunch of output from my index.cgi
..
bus error

Then, an empty coverage.html

You have to explicitly tell Devel::Cover what files to cover. See the docs for specifics, but something along the lines of (note it sets the output to go into /tmp/covertest/): `/usr/bin/perl -MDevel::Cover=-db,/tmp/covertest,-silent,0,-ignore,.,-s +elect,/home/you/your_pm index.cgi` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
