FWIW, nginx comes with an embedded Perl module a la mod_perl. It's
discourage for regular workloads because it blocks the worker running
the code and a long-running operation like a slow DB query would
reduce the throughput of Nginx. That said I have seen people use it
for things like minifying js/css on the fly.

There is also this interesting slideshow (in Russian, but you'll get t
the gist of it):
