NAME

    App::cpm - a fast cpan module installer

SYNOPSIS

      > cpm install Module

DESCRIPTION

    THIS IS EXPERIMETNAL.

    cpm is a fast cpan module installer, which uses Menlo in parallel.

MOTIVATION

    Why do we need a new cpan client?

    I used cpanm a lot, and it's totally awesome.

    But if your Perl project has hundreds of cpan module dependencies, then
    it takes quite a lot of time to install them.

    So my motivation is simple: I want to install cpan modules as fast as
    possible.

 HOW FAST?

    Just an example:

      > time cpanm -nq -Lextlib Plack
      real 0m47.705s
    
      > time cpm install Plack
      real 0m16.629s

    This shows cpm is 3x faster than cpanm.

ROADMAP

    If you all find cpm useful, then cpm should be merged into cpanm 2.0.
    How exciting!

    To merge cpm into cpanm, there are several TODOs:

      * Win32? - support platforms that do not have fork(2) system call

      * Logging? - the parallel feature makes log really messy

    Your feedback is highly appreciated.
