I could write a simple C caching thing that just hashes the CGI arguments

access to a particular cache object while it's being created) fairly 
easily, but I'm pretty sure people would much prefer a mod_perl thing just 
to avoid the fork/exec overhead with Apache (I think mod_perl allows 
Apache to run perl scripts without it), and that means I'm not the right 
person any more.

Not that I'm the right person anyway, since I don't have a web server set 
up on my machine to even test with ;)

This is quite nice and easy, if memory-only caching works for the 
situation:  http://www.danga.com/memcached/

There are APIs for C, Perl, and plenty of other languages.
