Nice to here positives about Perl and cgi. But, didn't you hear ... cpu cycles don't matter. You coulda just thrown some bigger hardware at it :)

    hehe, believe me I'd LOVE to throw bigger/better/faster hardware at it ;)

    still though, from a budget/manager's perspective, i'd think mine would rather hear that i just installed module (for free) and it took me 15 minutes, as opposed to getting a Purchase Order from me for a new server machine...(oh how i have tried though!)

      You never say that! You say that wrote it from scratch based upon some theories you read on the internet. It will take you a week to implement but will double performance. That will give you time to play WOW without them bothering you in the mean time... :)

    If you had some in the first place!

    I found a similar thing myself, and was amazed at the difference in "page loading" it was just like a hanging brake had been freed off.
