As it stands, we are forced to choose between mod_perl and HTTP/2. At the moment, our shop has chosen to keep mod_perl, but I share the above concerns, and I'd rather see mod_perl be ready if there is ever a major cultural shift / push to HTTP/2 in the broader market. as a owner of a small but quite fast growing company that first used MPW worker which was a little bit unstable and then went for prefork and this is working very well for now ...but it would be fantastic to have a stable worker for http/2, so if someone? can fix it we can probably sponsor part of work for I am sure that changing technic cost a lot more … /Sive
