This is usually the point where performance hits the deck and Perl goes by
the board. It's very nice indeed for hello-world sites with only a few
thousand rows, but deployment rapidly brings with it 100,000 rows, and
suddenly this package which we all tested so thoroughly falls on its arse.
I'm sure we've all met this before somewhere in a profiler.
