Embperl 1.x hasn't, Embperl 2 will have...

That's what's planned for Embperl 2 too. Also I like to have the possibility
to cache a whole page as static file (for files that doesn't change very
often), so Apache can serve them with full speed, just as a normal static
file.
When I wrote this text for the conference I thought I would be a little
faster with Embperl 2, but it's a lot of work (so far I have written more
then 5000 lines new (C-)code). I plan to release at least an alpha version
of Embperl 2 before the conference, also this version will not support all
the above cacheing strategies, but they are comming as soon as possible.
Also the XML part of the talk, will be a talk about upcomming features...
