Apachez, You can try LigHTTPD + FastCGI for Perl also. FastCGI has a good interface to Perl: FCGI (http://fastcgi.com/#TheDevKit). However I did not test it, so I can’t say if it is better than apache + mod_perl

Is there any solution other than apache 2.x + mod_perl 2.x if you need to boost your vanilla perl cgi scripts ? Does LigHTTPD for example have some kind of “accelerator” for perl scripts available ?
