initself has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I interface WWW::Mechanize with a website that is notoriously slow and buggy and crappy. Sometimes, requests for pages take absolutely forever to get a reply, but when you press back on the browser and resubmit the request, the request will go through immediately.

I wanted to simulate that on WWW::Mechanize - determine how long I have been timed out in my request and if x number of seconds pass, use $mech->back and resubmit my request.

Anyone know if this is possible?
