in thread UP-TO-DATE Comparison of CGI Alternatives

All Perl webframeworks RFC:SHOULD use PSGI as their interface layer. CGI can be used through PSGI.

Except that as discussed a few weeks back it is very slow with PSGI in a non-persistent environment. Too slow for me to be useful but YMMV.

    Yes. Sorry, I should have mentioned. But all webframeworks are slow without a persistent layer and CGI is probably going to be among the fastest. And in any large application, all of them will be too slow for practical use and some, like a big Catalyst app, completely unusable.

    You're saying CGI program running under PSGI is SLOER than same program running under CGI?

    Sounds like a broken program, see CGI to mod_perl Porting. mod_perl Coding guidelines
