I've been playing with the experimental event MPM for a front end
caching reverse proxy, and have been very happy with the results so far.

ditto. Witness it in use here:

http://ridecharge.com

PXY: httpd 2.2.9 w/ event mpm
Cache: X
APP: mongrel

mongrel's replacement passenger took the mod_perl type approach.
which I haven't played with yet, but will be soon.

For people that think mod_perl is heavy, mongrels are just as heavy.

mongrel processors = 5
mongrels = 12

size / mongrel process = 225 MB

Thats ~4GB / app box already and less < 2 years dev.

I'd mention that Ticketmaster's httpd/mod_perl backend app severs had
sizes of ~160MB and have over 400,000 lines of perl code, and 1700 packages.

We have not even close to that much in the mongrels.
