SpeedyCGI is a way to run perl scripts persistently, which usually makes them run much more quickly because it avoids the overhead of starting up a new perl interpreter and compiling the perl code. . This package provides an Apache2 module so that SpeedyCGI scripts can be run without the overhead of doing a fork/exec for each request. Please note that this package only works with Apache2's prefork MPM or the ITK MPM, as it is not thread-safe.
