Well, of course it is possible to do, but you have to think about some things...
- If you are using a CGI program that takes any kinds of parameters, you will need to cache a copy for each of these.
- How are you gonna determine when a change should occur? By an arbitrarily chosen timespan, or by detecting changes somewhere else?
If you have pages that are generated from say a database or some similar, and doesn't change all that frequently - by manual or timed updates, I'd suggest that you instead produce a new set of HTML pages from your DB (or what it is) upon every change instead. That is a lot more simple approach to reducing load. This assumes that your CGI's don't take any parameters etc, in which case a caching approach is so-so anyways.
You have moved into a dark place.
It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

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).
