Kind of. Yes, you can usually get dirty apps to run under mod_perl by
using Apache::PerlRun. Sometimes they're even too dirty for that,
though. Try it out.
But one question here is whether persistent mysql connections will speed
things up for you. In my experience: no. Connecting under mysql is so
fast that there's no need to cache connections. Oracle, on the other
hand, profits *greatly* from connection caching.
Of course, if you really care about this you ought to test your specific
situations before you decide.
