I'm the 3rd vote for Catalyst.

In Catalyst, you devel everything using the awesome "dev server," which 
is built into Catalyst and can be run using the command-line perl 
debugger (-d) anytime you want. Then when you're ready to roll to 
production you run the same code, but under mod_perl/Apache instead (or 
fastCGI/Apache or fastCGI/lightHTTPD, or other options).

This is how we do web stuff nowadays.  :)
