And I've confirmed that observation at least on Solaris and OpenBSD.
You can build a static mod_perl-enabled binary. Just be sure to have:
ClearModuleList
AddModule mod_mime.c
...
and add only the modules that you're using. Modules that don't get
"add"-ed appear to take up no data space... just becoming part of the
shared single binary that is being accessed.
(You can get the list with 'httpd -l' and a bit of text massaging.)
My front proxy processes are a mere 1.5 Meg right now, running
basically mod_ssl, mod_rewrite, and mod_proxy, and it's the same
binary as my backend mod_perl work processes, running about 10 to 15
Meg a piece.
No more DSO.
