When I said mysql is evil, I was wrong. The combination of Apache, Perl and mysql, without appropriate efficient connecting mechanisms, is evil. With mod_perl and Apache::DBI, Apache and mysql can be joined in a joyful union of squeezy squeezy love. And it is good. Though compiling mod_perl from source and getting it to join with a non-standard Apache install is a pain. Also, for those of you patient enough to wade through the geekery, you should listen to a Scandinavian Singing Horse Choir from b3ta.com.
