Well, the above question pre-supposes that Java is inherently
*better* than mod_perl for some definition of "better". 

Without getting into a long-drawn holy-war, I dont like the idea 
of "one size fits all" when it comes to web application 
infrastructure technologies. There are and will be perfectly good
reasons to use mod_perl / Java under the reasonable assumption that 
both technologies will evolve in the foreseeable future.
