Coming back to the original issue. Is it really so bad to load everything "automatically" if you're using a prefork MPM?

You can if you want to. That's definitely won't be the default. Don't forget that mp2 is much more than mp1. And people may want to use just one of its modules (e.g. a filter) w/o using modperl itself. Would you want to have 40+ modules preloaded for you when you need only 2?


It will all get shared, won't it?

You know how well perl gets its sharing working. Even though most of this code is C, it manipulates perl vars internally so a lot of it won't survive sharing.


Or is the problem that you don't know which MPM you're using when the first PerlRequire is being handled?

No, whe should know which mpm is used once mp is loaded and before any of its modules are loaded (well we need to load Apache::MPM for that purpose if we want to know that in perl)
