My upload script also restarts apache.  It's the easiest way I know of to
make sure your changes get made everywhere.

For a while I spent a lot of time using `load' instead of `require',
depending on whether $DEBUG was true or not... but that added restrictions
on how I could code (since some things I want run once only).  Restarting
apache is really the easiest thing.

Hi,

I'm just wondering how you guys deal with persistance while developing.
I find it extremly hard to deal with different behaviour depending on
which process of apache is currently running and has loaded my changes
to a class. Consequtive reloads will randomly yield the desired results,
but with apache running it's 5 processes, they are far between. I find
that I often give up and run apachectl graceful to be able to see my
results immediatly.

How do you guys deal with this?
