Hi

I see in the list of requirements that Links works best under mod_perl.

Optional: Links SQL will work under mod_perl for the best performance. However, this usually requires a dedicated server, and some co-operation from your hosting company. It's not trivial to install or set up. We can offer dedicated servers with mod_perl setup and configured.

Excuse my ignorance, but would some one be able to explain the benefits and the potential downside or possibly point me in the direction of where to find out more.

Many thanks
