You don't really need to do that. Connection-pooling can be done by 
Apache::DBI or even with some homegrown code.

What you do is, put a Squid proxy accelerator in front of your web server 
(Apache/mod_perl). So what happens is, the Squid box will take care of all 
the static content, and Apache will be free to handle the database-backed 
content. This way you don't have to have such a huge Apache box.
