Ahh, I didn't think of that one! Good idea. I'll do some more research
and see what I can find out.

Yeah, I can understand the performance hit. I may need to devise a means
of storing the log4perl object into memory and drawing it from there.
That's a bit beyond my current level of mod_perl skills so I'll need to
work on it. I'll try over at the CGI::App list to see if anyone has a
solution.
