There are unwanted caching effects, i.e.

(*) data global to a script, i.e. file level variables, will persist
     across invocation which can caused surprising data leaks from one
     web request to the next. SOLUTION: get rid of file level data
     and move it into objects or subroutines

(*) the scripts and perl modules themselves are precompiled and cached.
     When a script or module is modified the web server has to be
     restarted.

There may be advantages to using other schemes to speed up web services.
