You don't have to duck you, mod_perl is really a lot cooler
(and more powerful anyway), but also more complicated and
has more dependencies. For my current projects, i also use
mod_perl.
For kael: FastCGI starts you CGI (not only perl, but who needs something else) as a seperate process. Apache with the FastCGI module than communicates trough a socket (or even IP) with this CGI process. The benefit is, as Randal said, that the Webserver doesn't have to spawn a new process for every request. FastCGI is a good way, if you just want you CGIs to be faster (referring to the startup time) and don't like to "bother" with mod_perl. For everything else, mod_perl is the way to go. Roli
