This is probably more of a Friday topic:
Simon Cozens discusses "Microperl" in the current The Perl Journal.
I don't build mod_rewrite into a mod_perl Apache as I like rewriting with
mod_perl much better. But it doesn't make much sense to go that route for
a light-weight front-end to heavy mod_perl backend servers, of course.
I don't have any experience embedding perl in things like Apache other that
typing "perl Makefile.PL && make", but Simon's article did make me wonder.
So I'm curious from you that understand this stuff better: Could a
microperl/miniperl be embedded in Apache and end up with a reasonably
light-weight perl enabled Apache? I understand you would not have
Dynaloader support, but it might be nice for simple rewriting.
Curiously yours,
Bill Moseley
