For the database connection itself, you could use one of the database connection plugins, which essentially just create a global handle that is persistent. I'd be interested to hear what people think about a more generic persistent object though, as I have this problem myself. I've thought about having it as a global variable outside of the routes, which would probably work, but I'm concerned about it getting stale and/or being wrongly built for the relevant user. Maybe putting it in a session variable could be a good solution? > Is this related to how the application is running (CGI)? If you're running in plain CGI, then I think the entire dancer app is fired-up for each request, so you want to at least run in fast-CGI (or equivalent).
