Hi,
Your best bet to improve performance is to use a persistant environment like mod_perl or speedycgi. This will dramatically improve response times as when a user makes a connection, perl is already loaded, the script is already compiled, and the database connection is already connected.
If you are serious about that sort of loads, you should be running under a proxied environment, with your application server separate from your web server. You may also consider separating your database server to a separate machine.
If you are interested in getting this setup optimally to handle very large loads, contact info@gossamer-threads.com for more information on our system consulting services.
Cheers,
Alex
