in thread Getting query string with CGI::Fast

The counter does not increment when I use "if". I'm not exactly sure what the purpose of the counter is in the context of a web script. I'm totally new to FCGI. Should I be using "if" or "while"? What difference do they make after a response is received and despatched to subroutines?

    What is FCGI?

      Fast CGI as opposed to plain CGI which loads the interpreter and all the needed modules for every single request.

    If you're not constrained to using CGI, look at Dancer2. (or Mojo, whatever, we need a macro to suggest both simultaneously). CGI::SpeedyCGI is also an option for persistence in constrained environments. I know, it's old. You'd be surprised to hear who still uses it.
