I just looked at the load on master (=bugs.debian.org). It's
averaging around 8 or 9, and running top, I saw times when there were
about 10 copies of {bug,pkg}report.cgi running simultaneously. I
think that if the BTS is moving to dynamically generated pages only,
mod_perl is going to be a necessity.
I don't have much time right now, but I'd be happy to help when I do
(in October, most likely).
