  We use mod_perl for just about everything and then some too; serving
  around 1.25 million pageviews per day. All database lookups are handled
  inside Apache via mod_perl. Each request also goes through several
  mod_perl handlers and is then reformated on the fly with mod_perl SSI
  to embed advertising banners and give different views of the site depending
  on the hostname used.

  The Internet Movie Database (as we all know, a mod_perl driven site) won a
  1997 Webby as the best Film site on the web.
