Perl is a powerful, interpreted runtime environment commonly used in Web
environments.  In a CGI context the overheads of starting Perl (particularly
under VMS) can severely impact request response time and system overhead.
WASD's persistant Run-Time Environment (RTE) and persistant scripting (CGIplus)
both improve script response time and reduce system impact by allowing
scripting resources to be loaded into a process just once before processing
multiple requests.
