Background
I need to write a program which launches, monitors and reports the status of upto a few thousands of shell scripts.
I find two modules in the AnyEvent space (AnyEvent::Fork::Pool and AnyEvent::Worker::Pool) which seem to do the work
The description is not sufficient for me to understand which is more suitable for my purpose.
Initial attempts to install AnyEvent::Worker::Pool resulted in a failure (same failure observed at CPAN Tester http://cpantesters.org/cpan/report/10f80e0e-eea4-11e6-9f92-baad96342c9b )
My questions are:
- Is there a difference target audience for the two modules or are they two separate implementation for the same job(TIMTOWTDI)
- What is the difference between the two modules?
- Is AnyEvent::Worker::Pool suffering from bitrot (Last update nearly 7 years back)
