There are lots of different ways to get around the memory consumption. Using the light/heavy approach I was able to handle 20,000 unique visitors and roughly 100k page views per day with just 3 12 MB mod_perl processess. Not sure what you mean about stability, I've been running mod_perl for years and have not had a stability issue. There are tons of other large sites out there running mod_perl like Ticketmaster.com and slashdot.org for example. --------------------------------- Frank Wiles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.wiles.org ---------------------------------
