[Catalyst] Switching to a production server

[mikhail maluyk]

Hi Emily,

For fast image serving you could use reverse proxy. For configuring
nginx as reverse proxy, follow that link
http://blog.kovyrin.net/2006/05/18/nginx-as-reverse-proxy/lang/en/

I'm not sure if the catalyst myapp_server.pl is more than a
development server. I suggest you switch to apache with nginx or
lighthttpd as a reverse proxy server.
