I hope you have time to consider testing the next release with mod_perl2.
I'm currently in the process of migrating a mod_perl application from
PostgreSQL to OpenLDAP and there's some hurdles on the way:

Net::LDAP is slow. At least 2 times slower than Mozilla::LDAP and
reports of 10 times slower?! has been seen.

Net::LDAP does all of the BER codec in perl - that's probably why it's so much slower. Net::LDAP is fine for management and command line apps, but it's not really suitable for high volume web/server apps.


Apache has a nice Apache::DBI module to pool database connections. You
can do similar with ResourcePool::Resource::Net::LDAP.
But not with Mozilla::LDAP

Mozilla::LDAP seems to not work with mod_perl2 at all.

AFAIK, no one has ever looked at using Mozilla perldap with Apache. I don't know what it would take to make it work. What seems to be the problem with using it with mod_perl2?
