There are two options for setting up the CGI interface: standard mode and using mod_perl. Mod_perl provides much higher performance (around 15x) and is the best choice if your Apache was built with mod_perl support.

What is actually faster? Just the loading of web pages? If so, how
important is that? Is the web interface unusably slow without mod_perl?

I want to install BPC on a system that's already running a web server as user "apache". That leaves me with the choice of either running BPC on a second web server instance running as user "backuppc", or using suexec in the existing instance and not using mod_perl. What do I suffer if I choose
the second option?

mod_perl is a little faster, but since you hopefully don't spend a lot of time in the web interface it should be fine to not use mod_perl.
