  There are lots of different ways to get around the memory
  consumption.  Using the light/heavy approach I was able to handle
  20,000 unique visitors and roughly 100k page views per day with
  just 3 12 MB mod_perl processess.

  Not sure what you mean about stability, I've been
  running mod_perl for years and have not had a stability issue.

  There are tons of other large sites out there running mod_perl like
  Ticketmaster.com and slashdot.org for example.
