I have a feeling that most if not all of the problem lies in the Perl script. I briefly reviewed it, and one thing is certain: the viewStatistics page is simply an inappropriate target for enterprise monitoring. That page requires an authenticated view and special authorization by the viewer; having to deal with credentials in your health checks is a bad practice at best. There is a new status URI in CAS 3.5.0, /stats, that has been designed for enterprise monitoring. You can simply authorize an IP/netblock and hit the URI and it will report on meaningful statistics in easily parsable plain text. It has support for memory stats, LDAP pool health, and ticket registry stats for some registries at present. More to come for the next release. The only downside is that it's poorly documented, but maybe your post will pressure me to document the feature sooner than later. Take a look at the healthCheckMonitor bean in the deployerConfigContext.xml that ships with 3.5.0 [1] for starters.
