Normally we try to keep our speeds to a maximum, which is why we use PHP. :)
It would not benefit you to change if you already know perl and have your
project
done in it. If it's a real project with a deadline, just do it with what you
know best.
That's probably the best route. BUT... if you've time, dig into PHP4. Maybe it
can help on this, or maybe it'll help in the future. It really just depends on
what
you want to do, and what you're comfortable with.
