You're talking about two different things here. I personally think that slimserver needs re-architecting to use multiple threads/processes/programs so, for example, audio streaming is unaffected by browsing a large playlist. However, I do not agree with your assertion that perl is "obsolete and misapplied". Any problems with slimserver are *not* because it is written on perl.
