For what it is worth, I've been using DBIx::Class with mod_perl for over five years now, and have not run into any problems worth mentioning. I separate my model code from my request handlers though, and increment the dependency version in my Makefile.PL, so I do a server restart whenever I update one of the dependent modules. The code separation causes the development process to take more time, but the code is usually better quality in my opinion. I build a model library with DBIx::Class autoloaders, to which I add custom methods for my model classes. Takes a lot of the book keeping work out of making accessor methods, etc.
