Re: Re: Re: Re: Total speculation?

FWIW, I did discover that there is a version of THTTPD available with a built-in perl5 interpreter. Whether that would be enough to run mod_perl I have no idea, but if it is, it might be worth considering. At 200k, it's a single-threaded, single-process, select model server with every conceivable throttling option built-in, and more than up to the task of acting as a test server.

mod_perl is geared heavily toward Apache, exposing its API to Perl. A server without that API cannot run mod_perl, by definition. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]

I start googling, but perhaps you could post the link? This is interesting in it's own.	[reply]

thttpd The tiny/turbo/throttling web server. (200k exe in win32 form. see second section) The only mention I can find of the embedded perl I found is mostly in russian here but the link is to a UK site, but was down when I just tried it.
