PPerl is a persistent Perl interpreter that was
developed in order to reduce the high compile-time
overhead associated with running many scripts
persistently.

PPerl has been completely rewritten. Rather than pass STDIN/STDOUT over the sockets, it now passes the file descriptors. This makes it faster, and removes all the socket flow control code.
