1. Hey, why didn't I think of that? Nice one.
  2. Mmm, why not; who needs lots of concurrent users anyway? They can wait for the next apache process to finish writing to the network.
    1. Don't need to, I already write my code like that anyway*.
    2. Nice one
    3. Mmm
    4. And do what, use "Storable" to nfreeze and nthaw my data structures to and from the shared memory?
  4. I guess that will stop your server from completely crashing.
  5. How will that stop the per-perl instance data from being swapped out?

Here's what I see when I start a mod_perl web server. I start it up, it takes up about 3MB; presumably much shared. I load a few CPAN modules and soon enough, the process has grown to 5-8MB. The difference there cannot be shared between processes.

You could use Apache::Registry with FastCGI to run your perl scripts, as well!
