Well, you can say CGI is slow, but Perl CGI is very fast compared to
the alternatives. Have you ever tried

Some cheap ISPs run PHP as CGI for security reasons. My point is, it
doesn't make any difference if Perl is slow when you run it as CGI,

Here Java programmer is cheaper than mod_perl developer.
But if mp can get better performance, we may consider it as first choice.

I wonder if this will still be the case with Parrot and Perl 6?
I've read up on it a bit and with being able to compile multiple
languages exposing their libraries to each other it would seem more
programmers might be tempted into using Perl because of it's massive
library base.

In my experience, perl programming requires a certain type of mind. I cannot
define it very precisely, but not everyone can "think in perl". Those who
can, basically, have a huge advantage over those who cannot, but that
naturally limits perl adoption somewhat. I think th
