... I would be unlikly to use Perl for a really large application ...
Actually, it is getting to the point now that rather few applications written in Perl need to be "really large", in terms of what the application developer needs to write from scratch.
I've created a number apps that are actually fairly small in terms of what I personally have written, but they do "really large" things that I couldn't dream of being able to do without the core and CPAN modules. I'm sure that if I joined all the modules for an app into a single set of source code, it would be a pretty large amount of code.

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).
