Hi,

I'm writing an Intranet system (basically Content Management) for a school, so that teachers can post content to subjects for students to browse. It's currently running as mod_cgi and uses MySQL databases. It runs very fast as it is, but there are some doubts lurking in my mind:

1. Is it a must to always run under mod_perl for web applications? Or should this be used only in very massive apps? (Note: I've used Perl for most of my work on the web and always had it running as mod_cgi).
2. If I decide to port this to mod_perl -Apache::Registry-eventually, won't I run into problems with scripts that read cookies?

Thanks,
Ralph.
