mod_perl is a much better framework that PSGI, FastCGI IF you make use
of the integration of perl into all the stages of apache (you can hook
into about 15 different stages in the Apache life cycle.
We make of extensive use of the input, output filters, AAA-layers, clean
up, logging, server startup, etc processes then it is one of the best
web frameworks you can use.
We have sites where content is produced by either being static,
mod_perl, php, and java (or proxied back from some ancient CGI software)
all processed by the same mod_perl code in the output filter to look the
same! or different if was using a different site!
If all you are interested in is wrapping CGI scripts in a cached
interpreter for performance then yes you can move to one of these other
frameworks - but then you have already spent lots of time and effort
implementing the features that are virtually free with apache/mod_perl!
