I disgaree, I've run sites with 256 conncurrent connections with a single mod_perl server with 2 GBs of RAM. The reason I know it was 256 is because we hit upon a compile time limit under Apache 1.x and we couldn't up the MaxServerChildren any higher without a recompile, but the box certainly could have handled it. Unless you're very comfortable in C and the Apach API I think you might be better served to performance tune your mod_perl setup and/or your application. I'm not saying your way of solving it is bad or anything, just that it *can* be done with mod_perl without any C modules. --------------------------------- Frank Wiles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.wiles.org --------------------------------- -- Report problems: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html List etiquette: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html
