There is a bit of an overhead for DSO function calls, but this is
similar for any shared library vs statically linked. I for one just put a
bit of extra RAM in the server and make use of the flexability of DSO.
Example: I have had a need to do a 'quick-and-dirty' module for things
such as authentication. With DSO I can just compile the binary once with
APXS, and move it to the computers I need to run it on.
Most of my servers also run from a single RPM that I build myself, but
the different servers have different features enabled - and I don't need
to have the RAM of a feature used just because I wanted to be lazy in
compiling things once for all my machines.
