When apache executes a "standard" CGI in perl, it first encounters the =
shebang line (#!/usr/bin/perl). This causes it to load an instance of =
the perl interpreter into the shell that's forked to run the CGI. Then =
it runs the CGI. Then the shell exits. The next time that CGI is hit, =
apache rumbles through the same rigmarole again.

That's obviously a bit inefficient. mod_perl allows you to load an =
instance of perl into httpd at runtime and for it to persist for the =
life of that daemon. So any perl code is executed by the in-memory =
interpreter. Thats a lot faster and also allows you to take advantage of =
persistence of data. At the risk of getting a bollocking, you might like =
to look at http://perl.apache.org for more details...

Rgds,
Owen Boyle

You might also try using the DSO approach and apply the section "Build =
mod_perl
as a DSO outside the Apache Source Tree via APXS" to mod_php.  =20

BTW: The php install is part of the standard installation procedure. You =
install php from the standard install as part of the apache build.
