The fundamental and, in my opinion, fatal flaws of mod_per are as follows:
1) Concurrency. mod_perl is pretty close to forced to use mpm_prefork
because very few perl dependencies are thread safe.
2) mod_perl cannot provide web sockets.

Due to these reasons, my organization has started looking at ways to move
away from mod_perl.
