In other words, are you saying that you'll hire me? I plan on moving to England within the next 2 or 3 years. I'll send you an e-mail then and ask for a job. Probrably by then there'll be mod_perl3 and apache 4! Anyway, I promise I won't rush on upgrading things frenetically. ;-) > Just out of interest, which kernel are you using? This is a production server, so I am using stable 2.4.20. Wouldn't be responsible of me running 2.5.x in there right? > Well *real* Linux users only code in C and assembler - that'll give you the speed... You're right! But for simple and/or fast development scripts, I think perl with mod_perl make an excellent pair. But if you want ultra-light and really fast cgi programs, I agree that it really needs to be done in C. > By and large, 1.x is what the business world is using, and 2.x is > not-quite-bleeding-edge.
