Can you post your httpd.conf?  Or at least the parts of it about threads and
processes?

It is possible that Apache is just not that fast on NT.  NT support is
experimental in the 1.3 series.

You can't run mod_perl 1.x on Apache 2.0.

Another thing you could try is having multiple servers.  One could handle
static requests and proxy the dynamic ones to mod_perl.  I don't know if IIS
knows how to do this or not, but there's probably something available for NT
that does it.
