"Is X better than Y?" - a question that has vexed developers down through the ages. :) I don't currently do async code in Perl, so I don't know the answer - from a very brief skim of the docs for AnyEvent my gut instinct says that it appears to be flexible enough to handle the sort of thing you're talking about.
