Hi,
Total number of ads is not important (as it's all stored in MySQL and indexed properly), however what is important is number of simultaneous requests. i.e. how many hits per seconds your site is getting.
If you are a low to medium traffic site getting less then 2 hits per second (translates to roughly 5 million hits a month), then perl cgi will be acceptable.
If you are a high traffic site, then you may want to look at mod_perl instead. Also, AdCycle comes with an adcycle daemon and a C program to speed up adserving as well. Either of these will help improve performance under heavy loads.
Cheers,
Alex
