Hi Everybody, mod_perl is a great software. Thanks for everybody who spent time on it and make it available. When you send a reply to this, can you also describe how we can help, as an individiual, to support mod_perl and people behind it financially.
Now here are some of my questions. I am working on a project that will enable people, regular people, to use their computers remotely using apache and a web browser. I have various questions though. I started this with CGI, then migrated to mod_perl. However I want to bring a very general solution to the problem, so that developers can develop in any language they want. Number one issue is that, I selected perl because that's how I get started. Now I am using mod_perl for speed and various other issues. But what is the fastest solution out there. This application is supposed to run on a standalone PC, so it doesn't have to scale well, but it has to be as fast as possible. Is mod_perl the fastest solution available, other than the C of course. How does it compare to java. Second, what are my options if I want to combine mod_perl with other solutions, such as php, java and so on. One problem seem to be the session management. The second problem is that I want to be able to mix perl files with php files. For example the directory which should be handled by mod_perl should also have php files which should also run fine. Another question is that, why hosting guys avoid using mod_perl. Is it just because mod_perl is memory hungry? Finally how can I dynamically ban an ip address in mod_perl. For example, normally you can specify certain ip addresses with Allow, Deny directives. How can I do that dynamically using mod_perl. You can answer any of the above.
