I've got a perl website dating back to 2004 - from before php5 was out - that is still used by hundreds of people a day on an internal system.
Works great, the code is deployed by a deb in the same was as it deployed in 2008.
Since initial creation, had about 10 hours effort to put in a mobile view for an iphone and blackberry in 2008/9, and maybe 5 hours effort to replace the <object> with <video> a couple of years ago. Update the 3 files, roll the new deb, and away we go for the next forseeable, until the userbase finally decides that the multi-man-year all-singing replacement that's some javascript heavy frontend and microservice backend actually lets them do their job better (which it seems isn't the case from the complaints it gets)
