some corrections about mod_perl

Posted by: Anonymous Coward on August 23, 2006 11:56 AM
The caching of compiled code is a base feature of Perl itself, not something mod_perl adds. To make a fair test, I'd suggest using a code cache for PHP as well, and using the normal steps that a performance-oriented user would take with mod_perl, i.e. write a handler rather than a Registry script, use Apache::Request rather than CGI.pm, etc. Also, the FastCGI module for Perl is an alternative to mod_perl which is for use with FastCGI. It is not an accelerator for mod_perl.
