Apache 2.2.4/mod_perl 2.0.3

[Moozik: Hot Chip - And I Was A Boy From School]

I've spent the better part of the day trying to get Apache 2.2.4 with mod_perl 2.0.3 compiled & installed on Solaris 2.9. After banging my head against the wall trying configure options and then solving a plethora of linking issues I finally had a big grin when the following appeared in Apache's error_log:

Apache/2.2.4 (Unix) mod_perl/2.0.3 Perl/v5.8.8 configured -- resuming normal operations

Yay.

That "yay" lasted approx 10 minutes or so until I installed an app we run on Apache 1.x with mod_perl 1.x. It runs noticeably slower on the 2.x codebase. Bugger. After scouring the docs for porting mod_perl 1.x apps to mod_perl 2.x I must admit I'm left scratching my head. It should run just as fast - everything appears to be configured correctly. So WTF?

So today has been one of those frustrating => rewarding => frustrating days at work. The headache that is situated right behind my eyes at the moment is a sign that it's time to stop work and start the weekend ;-)
