374		410
		411	=head3 Restart Behaviour
		412
		413	While restart behaviour is up to the event loop implementation, most will
		414	not restart syscalls (that includes L<Async::Interrupt> and AnyEvent's
		415	pure perl implementation).
		416
		417	=head3 Safe/Unsafe Signals
		418
		419	Perl signals can be either "safe" (synchronous to opcode handling) or
		420	"unsafe" (asynchronous) - the former might get delayed indefinitely, the
		421	latter might corrupt your memory.
		422
		423	AnyEvent signal handlers are, in addition, synchronous to the event loop,
		424	i.e. they will not interrupt your running perl program but will only be
		425	called as part of the normal event handling (just like timer, I/O etc.
		426	callbacks, too).
		427
		428	=head3 Signal Races, Delays and Workarounds
		429
		430	Many event loops (e.g. Glib, Tk, Qt, IO::Async) do not support attaching
		431	callbacks to signals in a generic way, which is a pity, as you cannot
		432	do race-free signal handling in perl, requiring C libraries for
		433	this. AnyEvent will try to do it's best, which means in some cases,
		434	signals will be delayed. The maximum time a signal might be delayed is
		435	specified in C<$AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY> (default: 10 seconds). This
		436	variable can be changed only before the first signal watcher is created,
		437	and should be left alone otherwise. This variable determines how often
		438	AnyEvent polls for signals (in case a wake-up was missed). Higher values
		439	will cause fewer spurious wake-ups, which is better for power and CPU
		440	saving.
		441
		442	All these problems can be avoided by installing the optional
		443	L<Async::Interrupt> module, which works with most event loops. It will not
		444	work with inherently broken event loops such as L<Event> or L<Event::Lib>
		445	(and not with L<POE> currently, as POE does it's own workaround with
		446	one-second latency). For those, you just have to suffer the delays.

		485	As most event loops do not support waiting for child events, they will be

		2511	=head1 RECOMMENDED/OPTIONAL MODULES
		2512
		2513	One of AnyEvent's main goals is to be 100% Pure-Perl(tm): only perl (and
		2514	it's built-in modules) are required to use it.
		2515
		2516	That does not mean that AnyEvent won't take advantage of some additional
		2517	modules if they are installed.
		2518
		2519	This section explains which additional modules will be used, and how they
		2520	affect AnyEvent's operation.
		2521
		2522	=over 4
		2523
		2524	=item L<Async::Interrupt>
		2525
		2526	This slightly arcane module is used to implement fast signal handling: To
		2527	my knowledge, there is no way to do completely race-free and quick
		2528	signal handling in pure perl. To ensure that signals still get
		2529	delivered, AnyEvent will start an interval timer to wake up perl (and
		2530	catch the signals) with some delay (default is 10 seconds, look for
		2531	C<$AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY>).
		2532
		2533	If this module is available, then it will be used to implement signal
		2534	catching, which means that signals will not be delayed, and the event loop
		2535	will not be interrupted regularly, which is more efficient (and good for
		2536	battery life on laptops).
		2537
		2538	This affects not just the pure-perl event loop, but also other event loops
		2539	that have no signal handling on their own (e.g. Glib, Tk, Qt).
		2540
		2541	Some event loops (POE, Event, Event::Lib) offer signal watchers natively,
		2542	and either employ their own workarounds (POE) or use AnyEvent's workaround
		2543	(using C<$AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY>). Installing L<Async::Interrupt>
		2544	does nothing for those backends.
		2545
		2546	=item L<EV>
		2547
		2548	This module isn't really "optional", as it is simply one of the backend
		2549	event loops that AnyEvent can use. However, it is simply the best event
		2550	loop available in terms of features, speed and stability: It supports
		2551	the AnyEvent API optimally, implements all the watcher types in XS, does
		2552	automatic timer adjustments even when no monotonic clock is available,
		2553	can take avdantage of advanced kernel interfaces such as C<epoll> and
		2554	C<kqueue>, and is the fastest backend I<by far>. You can even embed
		2555	L<Glib>/L<Gtk2> in it (or vice versa, see L<EV::Glib> and L<Glib::EV>).
		2556
		2557	If you only use backends that rely on another event loop (e.g. C<Tk>),
		2558	then this module will do nothing for you.
		2559
		2560	=item L<Guard>
		2561
		2562	The guard module, when used, will be used to implement
		2563	C<AnyEvent::Util::guard>. This speeds up guards considerably (and uses a
		2564	lot less memory), but otherwise doesn't affect guard operation much. It is
		2565	purely used for performance.
		2566
		2567	=item L<JSON> and L<JSON::XS>
		2568
		2569	One of these modules is required when you want to read or write JSON data
		2570	via L<AnyEvent::Handle>. L<JSON> is also written in pure-perl, but can take
		2571	advantage of the ultra-high-speed L<JSON::XS> module when it is installed.
		2572
		2573	=item L<Net::SSLeay>
		2574
		2575	Implementing TLS/SSL in Perl is certainly interesting, but not very
		2576	worthwhile: If this module is installed, then L<AnyEvent::Handle> (with
		2577	the help of L<AnyEvent::TLS>), gains the ability to do TLS/SSL.
		2578
		2579	=item L<Time::HiRes>
		2580
		2581	This module is part of perl since release 5.008. It will be used when the
		2582	chosen event library does not come with a timing source on it's own. The
		2583	pure-perl event loop (L<AnyEvent::Impl::Perl>) will additionally use it to
		2584	try to use a monotonic clock for timing stability.

		2609	is much more complicated: even for backends that I<are> fork-aware or

		2611	watchers, that means all timers, I/O watchers etc. are active in both
		2612	parent and child, which is almost never what you want. USing C<exec>
		2613	to start worker children from some kind of manage rprocess is usually
