Can you compare the Performance of Servlets, JSP and Perl Pages ?
Servlets will be faster than Perl CGI ,because the Perl executable needs to launch as a separate process, then Perl needs to initialize itself, then load in the script, then compile the script, and finally execute the script. Here are some Benchmarks for running Servlets and Perl under similar conditions http://www.objexcel.com/workingjava.
