Again, Modperl running scripts slower than non-modperl!?

[John Buwa]

Ok guys,   Here goes again ... To refresh the standing: I am running my scripts on regular apache as the active server to the public. I am porting over my scripts to work properly with the modperl enable apache server. To do this when i am working on scripts and testing them, i start the modperl server running on another port as to not interfere with the port 80 requests.   If i run the same script on each apache the non apache will load and i can reload it again, before the original requested script completes on the modperl server. I wanted to convert to modperl for faster performance on my perl scripts, but i can not get that faster performance its several times worse than the nonperl server???   Now i know no one here is physic (Or maby i am wrong) but for those who are not i need to give you some clues. Here is a print out from top:   91 processes: 89 sleeping, 2 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped CPU states:  0.0% user,  0.7% system,  0.0% nice, 99.2% idle Mem:   257408K av,  228384K used,   29024K free,   13744K shrd,    5380K buff Swap:  265528K av,  184780K used,   80748K free                    8908K cached    PID    USER     PRI  NI  SIZE  RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM  CTIME COMMAND 25788 nobody     0   0  126M 125M  1076 S     0.0 49.8   0:13 httpd <----modperl server 25787 nobody     0   0  196M  32M  1356 S     0.0 12.9   0:19 httpd <-----modperl server 25799 nobody     0   0 32592  30M     8 S     0.0 12.2   0:10 httpd<---Non modperl server   My httpd.conf modperl section:   Alias /cgi-bin/  /driveb/usr/web/webroot/cgi-bin/      <Location /cgi-bin>  SetHandler  perl-script  PerlHandler Apache::Registry  Options +ExecCGI  PerlSendHeader On  </Location>   my entry script call:   for modperl and cg.pm   use CGI::Apache qw(:standard); use CGI qw(:cgi-lib);   Not sure what other information would be helpull to you.
