    I have several applications using I/O multiplexing written in Perl, such as:

    • a http based queue system (server/client)
    • a gateway for a proprietary billing system.
    I have tested my simple I/O multiplexing based http server against ab (apachebench), and it turns out that the performance is very good.

    I don't see any point for making a claim that Perl is NOT good at this.
