Resonable, IF your database supports stored procedures.

I don't think mysql supports them yet, does it?

Still, you can get most of the same benefits by having a SQL details abstraction layer in Perl.

    That just shows that MySQL is just there for toy applications. Noone is interested in a break-down of SQL queries of (or has 1000 queries in) a toy application.

    I just find it mind boggling people use MySQL in applications they take serious. But then, people run services they find important on Windows machines as well.

        Before you run off, have a look at SapDB and Phoenix. Both open source, and they play at least two leagues above mySQL.
