<P>
 
73
Tells the server to import the Python module module at process startup
 
74
under the specified interpreter name. This is useful for
 
75
initialization tasks that could be time consuming and should not be
 
76
done at the request processing time, e.g. initializing a database
 
77
connection.
 
78
 
 
79
<P>
 
80
The import takes place at child process initialization, so the module
 
81
will actually be imported once for every child process spawned.
 
82
 
 
83
<P>
 
84
<div class="note"><b class="label">Note:</b>
 
85
At the time when the import takes place, the configuration is not
 
86
  completely read yet, so all other directives, including
 
87
  PythonInterpreter have no effect on the behavior of modules imported
 
88
  by this directive. Because of this limitation, the interpreter must
 
89
  be specified explicitly, and must match the name under which
 
90
  subsequent requests relying on this operation will execute. If you
 
91
  are not sure under what interpreter name a request is running,
 
92
  examine the <tt class="member">interpreter</tt> member of the request object.
