Hi,
I'm sure that someone from GT will answer eventually and may correct me, but here's my thoughts:
1: No you don't have to tell Links - if mod_perl is running it will find it. You can tell if you look at the environment in setup.
2: I ran my site under a single mod_perl server for a time but eventually it couldn't cope. I think that if you can, it is better to get the backend mod_perl server set up as soon as possible as the performance difference is noticeable.
3: Yes, it is possible to run more than one installation.
4: I think either for the whole server or for the virtual host - depends how you are using the server. I think that if you are going to have several domains it is probably better to start with them in the virtual host.
5: If it is just globals, I think you should be OK because the Links scripts will already be using 'use strict' so I don't think that you can write globals without declaring variables. Plugins might be a different issue.
