If you haven't already, you might want to look into mod_perl:

http://perl.apache.org/

The different architecture (scripts sharing a single interpreter as
opposed to each using its own copy of the interpreter) can give rise
to unexpected issues, so I'd advise you to read the mod_perl guide
thoroughly before you 'go live' with it.
