We run mod_perl on Apache at work. We are having a small issue with some long-running requests and I’m doing some Googling to try and figure out what’s going on.
I ran across this 8 part series of O’Reilly articles about “Improving mod_perl Sites’ Performance”
They are a little old, but they still have plenty of relevant information. So I figured I’d list them here so I can find them again.
- Part 1: The Big Picture
- Part 2: Essential Tools
- Part 3: Benchmarking and Optimizing
- Part 4: Shared Memory
- Part 5: Shared Memory (cont.)
- Part 6: Forking
- Part 7: Tweaking Apache Configuration
- Part 8: Tweaking Apache Configuration (cont.)
Looks like I have some reading to do.
