    If the smallest possible installation for a mod_perl application is in the range of $US450 a year, that's quite a bit for small operators.

    If they can find something for $100, they'll use whatever is needed to be able to afford that (bearing in mind many people are from locations where their currency is weaker).

    • I had no trouble finding hosting that supports mod_perl for $30/month, but people who are really broke will probably use FastCGI, which I found for $6/month. I can't see costs this low being a barrier for people.

      • Hey, I want to sign up!

        Could you and people give some URLs for these great, money saving, perl smoking, isps? And experiences?

        I use 1&1 (1and1.com) and like it, but their cheapest tier lost out a bit a while ago.

        Thanks.

        • I didn't look hard for these -- just found them on the first page of Google results. The names are here [perlmonks.org].

    • It probably is the people who are using the $100/year solutions that are generating these complaints. I don't blame them - if I had to deal with the issues of an $8/month hosting account I'd be complaining too.
