hello,
i'm in doubt whether to use a perl cgi script or a perl program via
mod_rewrite because of performance.
the actual processing is handling a client certificate and some xml and
returning a base64-encoded string. processing takes less than a second
but let's say it takes exactly one second
if the site gets 10 simultaneously requests for a cgi it will start 10
perl interpreters (i guess) and all requests should be handled within a
second.
but what happens if the site gets 10 simultaneously requests for a URI
that is handled by a perl program via mod_rewrite? like:
RewriteMap prg:perl_program.pl
i know theres only one perl interpreter started at server startup and it
listens on STDIN - but does that mean it will handle the 10 request one
by one? i mean, in this example it would appear to take 10 seconds for
the last request?
