TIEHASH
+package that is required to store arbitrary perl data, including nested
+references. Thus, this module can be used for storing references and other
+arbitrary data within DBM databases.
+
+It works by serializing the references in the hash into a single string. In
the
+underlying TIEHASH package (usually a DBM database), it is this string that
gets
+stored. When the value is fetched again, the string is deserialized to
+reconstruct the data structure into memory.")
