Alex,
You best bet is probably FastCGI; you should then be able to set up a
number of back-end FastCGI processes serving pages.
Converting mod_perl CGI scripts to FastCGI is pretty easy, as long as you
stayed away from the Apache API. See the man page for CGI::Fast for an
example, or
to the corporate lawyers.
Has anyone here had experience of doing this sort of thing at large
companies,
and making the arguments for open source'ing your code? Any war
stories, or tips you can pass on?
