Hello,
I need to write a (new) Apache module that uses embedded Perl in a
high-load server environment.
While this is not directly related to the use of mod_perl, I have
many questions which the mod_perl team can probably answer. In particular,
1) Are there any issues related to using an embedded Perl interpreter in a
threaded server application? In particular, I'd like each thread to be
able to interpret its own Perl scripts, without the performance penalty of
creating a new interpreter; is that possible?
2) One webpage I've read says that mod_perl "compiles" (interprets) each
Perl script only once, and then retains the compiled code in memory. Is
that something that was custom-made for mod_perl, or is that a feature of
using an embedded Perl interpreter? Can you point me to a file/line of code
in mod_perl?
I'm looking to understand embedding Perl. If you can refer me to
any documents other than perlembed and perlguts, I would greatly appreciate
it.
Thank You,
Derek Simkowiak
