CGI's have nothing to do with Perl and can be written in any language, even C (and they'd be just as slow).
There is nothing on Apache faster than mod_perl, and PHP doesn't come CLOSE to the power of mod_perl because mod_perl is actually coding Apache.
This is the kind of obscurity that these arguements always fall into and they make it useless to discuss.
