in thread CPAN module install really slow

Hi marto thanks for your reply, I will give both of those a try. The RHEL box should be must faster along with all the infrastructure around it. I realise there could be a host of reason for this difference but it does not make any sense to me the length of time it takes to do an install. It should be lightning fast on these servers! Ill report back with my updates on your suggestions in a while

    Perhaps there's a difference in the cpan config, but architecture differences can be huge. At work I've experienced far too many problems cause by poor system configuration to rule such things out. Regardless how many times I'm assured "everything is the same" or "everything is configured properly" it usually turns out not to be the case. Yes, our clients employ poor systems architects and administrators.

      Haha, you are far from alone there!
