Hi,
Would it be possible to use two apache httpds, one vanilla
and the other one mod_perl enabled? The vanilla one can be
configured to serve the (presumably) majority of requests (static
and normal cgi), leaving the mod_perl one to concentrate on the
bigger dynamic requests. You can transparently connect the two
through different ports using ProxyPass, as discussed at
http://perl.apache.org/tuning/.
