It is quite normal that you do not see a speed-up by using mod-perl. Mod-perl "compiles" your script the first time it is run (so the first time it is run it takes as long as a "normal" perl-script), and as from the second time it is run it uses the pre-compiled version, thus saving you the time to start a new perl-interpreter, loading in the program code and all modules needed, compiling the script and finally running it.

As you never even get around to run the script once and Apache kills it, mod-perl never gets a chance to show its usefulness.
