One possibility is to 

   require My::Memory::Hog ;

once you know it needs to be used, then to suicide your process when done
with the request.  That's not always a good idea, if your childinit takes
a long time, for instance, but it may simplify your life to not have to
worry about the two different environments.

I do exactly this for a largish chunk of code, I have a Safari::Request
object that I fill in from a comand-line or CGI script.  You might also
look at Apache::FakeRequest.  I can send you mine (I posted it to this
list or another list recently).

There is definitely a recurring interest in runnng mod_perl scripts from
command line and via CGI.  That's not feasible for all scripts, but for
the more "plain vanilla" ones, it should be.
