well, from the sounds of Bill's email, map_to_storage is going to run even if you return OK from a PerlTransHandler, and it's map_to_storage that consumes the overhead of stat'ing the filesystem for static files.
but I could be misunderstanding - I haven't looked at the code yet.
I think not. That's precisely the point of:
PerlTransHandler Apache::Constants::OK
yes, I'm aware of that.
which causes map_to_storage to skip. I think it's the same in mp2.
apparently it isn't. I modified mod_example.c to hook map_to_storage and returned OK from a PerlTransHandler. mod_example's translate handler is not called, but map_to_storage still is.
but regardless, as with all things apache, if it exists we should probably open it up :)
If it's of any use to us, sure, otherwise, not really. IMHO, PerlTransHandler is just fine for this.
looks like it will be value added. I'll put something together soonish for this.
