And al these sites could load their own perl? Painful. And PLEASE front the sites with a reverse proxy: squid, varnish whatever. If not, you're opening yourself up to all kinds of badness. Mod_perl is an *app* server, not a web server. Please read Stas' chapter on performance tuning! Chapters 9 and 10: http://modperlbook.org/html/part2.html And the others.
