Items that you store in memory with mod_perl are only available to the same
apache process, so that may not help you much. You could try using
IPC::Shareable or IPC::ShareLite to make
your datastructure available across processes. This can buy you a lot
of performance, but has a lot of risks (i.e. if you reboot your
system the data in shared memory is gone, unless you have a facility to write
it to disk). Your best bet is probably to use a real database (Postgres, mysql, etc...)
and if it isn't fast enough for you then consider some sort of
in-memory caching. mod_perl can buy you a lot with traditional databases
performance wise (presistant cached database handles, etc..)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
