Apache2::reload?

[Dani Pardo]

 Hi, I'm a little newbie, so please forgive me if the question is a  bit lame.
 I've installed apache 2.0.58 with modperl 2.0.2 from source, and
when I change a script on disk, the results get automatically
reflected on the browser (I don't have to restart apache). I didn't
setup Apache2::reload or anything like that. Is that normal?

 My apache conf is something like this:

  <FilesMatch "\.pl$">
                       SetHandler perl-script
                       PerlHandler ModPerl::Registry
                       PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
                       Options +ExecCGI
                       PerlOptions -ParseHeaders
                       PerlSendHeader Off
 </FilesMatch>

Thanks!
