That's a lot of users :) I don't have the experience of supporting that number of users, but I've used it on a site with 80 requests / second, and it didn't blink. Load was always low, memory usage minimal. Searching google, it appears that you may need to increase the number of fd's available to pound in that busy an environment, but otherwise, I think it unlikely that you'll have any issues.

Re: modperl with SSL
I also recommend stunnel. It has come through for me in these same situations without problems. On Mon, 2008-03-24 at 07:46 -0400, Roberto C.

a backend server - the server that REALly serves the request. Foo JH wrote: What is a realserver? J. Peng wrote: hello list, we have our own realserver called QHttpd.

Re: modperl with SSL
realserver, generally, it means a web server like apache, which is different from a proxy like squid.

modperl with SSL
