Sorry, don't use torque here so can't offer any advice on it..

This should definitely work.  I've migrated two Turbine 2.1 apps without
changing any actions and their methods.  I would compare the request
parameters for each instance and see if they are differrent.  The method
doPerform() is the default method that gets called if there's no specified
event.  Also ensure your input button is of type "submit".

And, so far I've yet to experience problems with the binary release of the
turbine 2.3, though the version in CVS is probably "better".
