Date What I'm concerned about is if a perl script can perform well under high loads, and also if it's possible to create some type of 'watcher' process to monitor the perl daemon and restart it if it dies. Or alternatively, (and maybe off-topic) is there something like this already written that is stable enough to use? The closest I've found was dbmail which doesn't seem quite ready for primetime just yet.
