I have several applications using I/O multiplexing written in Perl, such as: a http based queue system (server/client) a gateway for a proprietary billing system. I have tested my simple I/O multiplexing based http server against ab (apachebench), and it turns out that the performance is very good. I don't see any point for making a claim that Perl is NOT good at this.	[reply]
