You should learn about caching. Tweaking the template caching settings
under any system can vastly improve performance.
TT is a great templating engine but in my opinion is not very good for
beeing used with mod_perl or with programs that need running very fast.
Most people that I've met have chosen to use mod_perl to speed up their
templating engine, not the other way around.
As far as I'm concerned, TT is perfect if you like using it , just as
is every other engine.
When i chose Petal over HTML::Template::JIT and regexs, a friend did
the math to show me the real-life benefits of using the faster engines
there virtually were none -- even at great percentage differences
between them all (differences by the powers of 10) , when you add in
your full logic, plus the request lifecyle, plus proxying, correlating
the saved time to new available connections was something like an
increase of 3 minutes per day.
