Hi Bas,
This is number one on my wish list too.
I need to fork a lot of processes per request ... the memory cost
of forking an apache child is too high though.
So I've written my own mini webserver in Perl (which I need to
proxy to) but I'd prefer to have a Perl Application Server, listening on
port 80... I actually implemented the system in Java to use threads but it
ran really slowly under load ... so I gladly reverted to Perl.
It has been something of a search for the 'Holy Grail' ... but I
think a compromise design would be something akin to
http://jetty.mortbay.org ... this is a lightweight application engine that
includes a HTTP/Servlet handler ... in other words: a P5EE application
server that you can plug a fast HTTP/HTTPs handler into.
