Some things that don't compute:
- "cross-platform" AND Win32::API in the same paragraph
- but I don't want it to be a big CPU eater. Anybody have a good way to do so reliably?
I'm not even sure as to what your trying to do,
Dynamic forking maybe? If so check out
Parallel::ForkManager as a starting point, and
fork,
perlipc,
perlfork. Did you even bother looking at
Sys::Load's docs. It apears as if it only gets information, which is system specific not task specific. Could you describe how you would like that to help? Or maybe more of what your goal is? Essentially, if a task takes 500,000wallclocks to complete, it doesn't matter how you cut it, it is going to take at least 500_000wallclocks.
