title: How do I use async programming in Perl?
body: <p>Is there a simple way to do async in Perl?  I have the following logic for an Apache app:</p>
  
  <pre><code>get request
  process request
  write to log
  return
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>what I want to do is to have the "write to log" part to be async, so that I can do the "return" part asap.</p>
