From the perldocs:

     This module's handler emulates the CGI environment, allowing
     programmers to write scripts that run under CGI or mod_perl
     without change.  Unlike Apache::Registry, the
     Apache::PerlRun handler does not cache the script inside of
     a subroutine.  Scripts will be "compiled" every request.
     After the script has run, it's namespace is flushed of all
     variables and subroutines.

     The Apache::Registry handler is much faster than
     Apache::PerlRun.  However, Apache::PerlRun is much faster
     than CGI as the fork is still avoided and scripts can use
     modules which have been pre-loaded at server startup time.
     This module is meant for "Dirty" CGI Perl scripts which
     relied on the single request lifetime of CGI and cannot run
     under Apache::Registry without cleanup.
