Dynamic Content Test: Perl CGI

This test was conducted with Perl script called printenv.pl that prints the CGI environment.
CGI tuning settings were applied to the server. The goal was to saturate the cores on the server
and find out the respective throughput and response time.
The following table shows the CGI tuning settings used in the dynamic content test for Perl
CGI.
