POE rocks, but a single process just doesn't work for Catalyst,
because the entire time your application code is running, the process
is blocked. Multiple processes is really the only way to go for a web
server. It may be possible to do some crazy things with something
like Coro but at a severe cost to performance.
It's suitable for use as a fast development server with the same -r
restart support as the HTTP and POE engines, and should also be
suitable as a production-quality server (although it *is* still
version 0.01 :)
Sounds that with the XS modules it really should be as fast as the
mod_perl or
fastcgi servers ?
I've been intending to benchmark the various engines and haven't
gotten around to it yet. If anyone wants to help out in that regard
it would be appreciated. :) I was able to get up to around 400
requests/second out of Prefork on my older Macbook Pro.
