- Reload Perl Modules when Changed on Disk
+Description:  Reload Perl modules when changed on disk
+ Apache2::Reload reloads modules that change on the disk.
  .
- This description was automagically extracted from the module by dh-make-perl.
+ When Perl pulls a file via "require", it stores the filename in the global
+ hash %INC. The next time Perl tries to "require" the same file, it sees the
+ file in %INC and does not reload from disk. This module's handler can be
+ configured to iterate over the modules in %INC and reload those that have
+ changed on disk. It can also monitor only specific modules that have
+ registered themselves with Apache2::Reload. It is possible to trigger the
+ check only when a special touch-file has been modified, minimizing the number
+ of stat() calls per request.
