in reply to What module to use for templates and caching?

HTML::Template seems to be pretty popular, usually in combination with CGI::Simple. Sounds like you don't really need the second part though, just a Makefile? What I mean is, there's no need to serve the content dynamically if it's not changing very often.

So just generate a new HTML file each time the content changes in the database rather than using all that mod_perl power...

    Thanks Paul. Sorry it took me so long to reply, I was on extended vacation :) The problem with this approach is that it will require too much disk space. We will have tens of thousands of static pages then and many of them are accessed quite rarely, so it doesn't make a lot of sense to keep them around all the time.
