		401	=head3 Signal Races, Delays and Workarounds
		402
		403	Many event loops (e.g. Glib, Tk, Qt, IO::Async) do not support attaching
		404	callbacks to signals in a generic way, which is a pity, as you cannot
		405	do race-free signal handling in perl, requiring C libraries for
		406	this. AnyEvent will try to do it's best, which means in some cases,
		407	signals will be delayed. The maximum time a signal might be delayed is
		408	specified in C<$AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY> (default: 10 seconds). This
		409	variable can be changed only before the first signal watcher is created,
		410	and should be left alone otherwise. This variable determines how often
		411	AnyEvent polls for signals (in case a wake-up was missed). Higher values
		412	will cause fewer spurious wake-ups, which is better for power and CPU
		413	saving.
		414
		415	All these problems can be avoided by installing the optional
		416	L<Async::Interrupt> module, which works with most event loops. It will not
		417	work with inherently broken event loops such as L<Event> or L<Event::Lib>
		418	(and not with L<POE> currently, as POE does it's own workaround with
		419	one-second latency). For those, you just have to suffer the delays.

		2419	=head1 RECOMMENDED/OPTIONAL MODULES
		2420
		2421	One of AnyEvent's main goals is to be 100% Pure-Perl(tm): only perl (and
		2422	it's built-in modules) are required to use it.
		2423
		2424	That does not mean that AnyEvent won't take advantage of some additional
		2425	modules if they are installed.
		2426
		2427	This section epxlains which additional modules will be used, and how they
		2428	affect AnyEvent's operetion.
		2429
		2430	=over 4
		2431
		2432	=item L<Async::Interrupt>
		2433
		2434	This slightly arcane module is used to implement fast signal handling: To
		2435	my knowledge, there is no way to do completely race-free and quick
		2436	signal handling in pure perl. To ensure that signals still get
		2437	delivered, AnyEvent will start an interval timer to wake up perl (and
		2438	catch the signals) with some delay (default is 10 seconds, look for
		2439	C<$AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY>).
		2440
		2441	If this module is available, then it will be used to implement signal
		2442	catching, which means that signals will not be delayed, and the event loop
		2443	will not be interrupted regularly, which is more efficient (And good for
		2444	battery life on laptops).
		2445
		2446	This affects not just the pure-perl event loop, but also other event loops
		2447	that have no signal handling on their own (e.g. Glib, Tk, Qt).
		2448
		2449	Some event loops (POE, Event, Event::Lib) offer signal watchers natively,
		2450	and either employ their own workarounds (POE) or use AnyEvent's workaround
		2451	(using C<$AnyEvent::MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY>). Installing L<Async::Interrupt>
		2452	does nothing for those backends.
		2453
		2454	=item L<EV>
		2455
		2456	This module isn't really "optional", as it is simply one of the backend
		2457	event loops that AnyEvent can use. However, it is simply the best event
		2458	loop available in terms of features, speed and stability: It supports
		2459	the AnyEvent API optimally, implements all the watcher types in XS, does
		2460	automatic timer adjustments even when no monotonic clock is available,
		2461	can take avdantage of advanced kernel interfaces such as C<epoll> and
		2462	C<kqueue>, and is the fastest backend I<by far>. You can even embed
		2463	L<Glib>/L<Gtk2> in it (or vice versa, see L<EV::Glib> and L<Glib::EV>).
		2464
		2465	=item L<Guard>
		2466
		2467	The guard module, when used, will be used to implement
		2468	C<AnyEvent::Util::guard>. This speeds up guards considerably (and uses a
		2469	lot less memory), but otherwise doesn't affect guard operation much. It is
		2470	purely used for performance.
		2471
		2472	=item L<JSON> and L<JSON::XS>
		2473
		2474	This module is required when you want to read or write JSON data via
		2475	L<AnyEvent::Handle>. It is also written in pure-perl, but can take
		2476	advantage of the ultra-high-speed L<JSON::XS> module when it is installed.
		2477
		2478	In fact, L<AnyEvent::Handle> will use L<JSON::XS> by default if it is
		2479	installed.
		2480
		2481	=item L<Net::SSLeay>
		2482
		2483	Implementing TLS/SSL in Perl is certainly interesting, but not very
		2484	worthwhile: If this module is installed, then L<AnyEvent::Handle> (with
		2485	the help of L<AnyEvent::TLS>), gains the ability to do TLS/SSL.
		2486
		2487	=item L<Time::HiRes>
		2488
		2489	This module is part of perl since release 5.008. It will be used when the
