CPAN Testers and giant library
Dear lazyweb,
I am about to upload a new Alien:: distribution that downloads, builds, and installs a very, very large library. The installation of this Alien:: distribution occupies about 240MB on my laptop and compile times are huge even on my fast computer.
Is there a way to flag a distribution as unsuitable for CPAN testers? I'd rather not abuse the volunteer infrastructure by having them compile a library over night.
