There is an emerging industry trend towards consolidation an integration of webstack technology, and mod_perl + mpm_event is well-positioned to eat everyone else’s lunch in this space. The only real reason fastcgi-like frameworks won out over the past two decades is because threading was/is crap in Dynamic Programming Languages. Nobody could successfully embed into a threaded webserver, so they went around celebrating multi-tiered architectures instead.
As the posted benchmark shows, you don’t need a massive investment in a cluster of horizontally scalable docker containers to service your dynamic content load. Instead, you need to horizontally scale your modestly sized front-end apache servers running mpm_event+mod_perl with a Network (TCP-level) Load Balancer in the front.
