As with everyone else, I can't seem to figure out what you want. It appears that what you want is a way to host perl-based web applications that are:
If this is what you want, I think that the last requirement there is going to be the kicker. First off, any module that requires the perl source code and/or libperl to build all its parts is never going to be in the default apache configuration. This includes Apache::PerlRun, since that depends on mod_perl. It also includes PersistentPerl, mentioned elsewhere, since that requires building a separate executeable linked to libperl. Instead, may I ask: what's wrong with fastcgi? In the past, fastcgi was almost killed by licensing issues - I think the original developers were for a while wanting you to pay for access to the module - but that's not the case any longer. mod_fastcgi is open source, and there are fastcgi implementations for most webservers out there. (the webserver world doesn't begin and end with Apache) If your webhost isn't offering fastcgi, switch to one that does, and let your old host know why you're switching.
