Yes.  I do, and I like it a lot.  It's not too big:

-rwxr-xr-x  1 kevin   users    251116 Nov  5 12:12 /usr/local/bin/perl
/usr/local/bin/perl:	mc68k executable (shared demand paged) 

This is version 3.0 compiled with gcc 1.35, which took a bit of fiddling.

I don't know what to say about RAM requirements.  I have had no trouble,
and don't expect any.
