NAME

LWP::ConnCache::MaxKeepAliveRequests - A connection cache that enforces a max keep alive limit

SYNOPSIS

  use LWP;
  use LWP::ConnCache::MaxKeepAliveRequests;
  my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
  $ua->conn_cache(
      LWP::ConnCache::MaxKeepAliveRequests->new(
          total_capacity          => 10,
          max_keep_alive_requests => 100,
      )
  );

DESCRIPTION

LWP::UserAgent is the default module for issuing HTTP requests from Perl. It has a keep_alive setting which by default allows unlimited requests to the same server. Some servers will disconnect you after a limited number of requests (in Apache 2 this is achieved with the MaxKeepAliveRequests directive). This module allows you to limit the maximum number of keep alive requests to a server.
