-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 In case anyone is interested in PPerl as an alternative where mod_perl might be too hard to get installed, I have done some very *very* simplistic benchmarking to show the performance differences. Here's the script I used:
use strict; use Data::Dumper; use CGI; print CGI::header(-type => "text/plain"); print Dumper(\%ENV); Running under three environments: Perl CGI, PPerl CGI, and mod_perl Apache::Registry. The results of the quick benchmark over 30 seconds were: Perl CGI: 3.43 requests/sec PPerl CGI: 32.42 requests/sec mod_perl: 80.85 requests/sec Which is about what I expected. The most interesting figures are the latency figures - pperl is around the same latency-wise as mod_perl, where both blow plain perl CGI out of the water, meaning your users get a *much* better experience. Anyway, just thought you might be interested. Note that PPerl is also really useful with stuff like Mail::Audit scripts. - -- <:->get a SMart net</:-> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjzCnCYACgkQVBc71ct6OyzIAQCgnREPK8Bj5RCliooqtWWrX+ab jbgAnRHnQAByunmIIylZA0F3Tq+iDMiU =7U2O -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
