I think the bigger problem is that not all of the Perl modules are thread
safe.

Has DBI itself become thread safe or is it still a great area ?

If you mean mod_perl with ithreads and using the Apache mpm_event module, t=
hen that&#39;s incorrect, I think. Search the archives of this mailing list=
 for posts by Joe Schaefer &lt;<a href=3D"mailto:[email protected]" target=

 performance is much, much better than mpm_prefork), but my understanding i=

l with custom options, iirc.<br>
