If you use the perl module, then the perl interpreter is embedded, nothing is spawn. Same is with app_lua module and Lua scripts - execution should be very fast.
If you invoke other applications via exec() (exec module) then is spawning.
I did not mean the invocation of the interpreter; I just meant that there is always overhead when data interchange to an outside process is involved.
On the other hand, it gives you the ability to use the full capabilities of Perl, of course, instead of being limited to Kamailio script.
