Hi,

You must think about of what you wanna do... you can't say X is better than Y, because that's not true...

You can't even say that for develope webpages is better one than another, you must do a strict analysis, really!

If we talk about webpages, a website you must think about the scalability, not only how much traffic, how many request can give solution X or Y, you must think about: what new functionality I must provide tommorow... how many updates will be done to the webpage... who will make they... and a large etc. Because answering this question you can know if what you need is a webpage that gets admin. by admin (content also) or you need a CMS, or need a independent solution (like Bricolage) etc...

You must be able to distinguish between a web-site and a web-app. If you need a web-app then you can think about what kind of webapp would it be... do it conforms to the MVC model? If yes, then you can think about CGI::Application, Maypole, Catalyst, etc...

I use some technologies. For website I use often Mason, because I have a lot of code written that I can reuse. I also have some webapp written with Maypole, it's very easy (this remember me that I should update some servers to the latest version of Maypole, which supposed to fix speed issues). I also read the Catalyst documentation, expecting to begin in a few weeks a refactoring of a big webapp.

Resuming, you should think about what you really want to do, and then choose the easiest solution that also let you scale to the 1 year forward expectations/requirements.

K.I.S.S.
