Increase execution time (Speed) of Perl

[pikato]

Hi everyone,
I would like to know if Perl could run faster similar to PHP. I use Perl/Jquery/Mysql/Apache. Is there any tools to enhance the overall throughput.

Thank you.

Perl is faster than PHP when comparing apples to apples and not apples to oranges, but as with all languages, if your code is poorly written it could be slow.
