It's interesting to note the headline figures have 5.71 performing 316 tps, vs 5.80 making only 283 tps.

The very important thing you haven't noted (unless I missed it) is what perl version this benchmark was conducted under.

Ah, sorry, I didn't mention it.

I benchmarked it on Perl 5.10.0, using the standard system Perl on Ubuntu Jaunty. (With updates applied)

I was benchmarking the two Catalyst's on otherwise-identical setups, as I thought that was fairer.. Just about *everything* OO performs faster on Perl 5.010 vs 5.008, doesn't it?

Some benchmarking was done before 5.8 was released, and it showed that Catalyst 5.7 was (marginally) quicker on perl 5.8 and that Catalyst 5.8 was (marginally) quicker on perl 5.10 :)

My test app is very simple; If there's some official test app available I'd be interesting in re-running my tests. I pushed my little test app and some siege scripts out to github, but I don't think they'd be happy with 2GB of virtual machine images being added :)

So I'd be very interested to see the benchmark repeated with two different perls, giving 4 results to compare and contrast.

I'll see if I get some more time to try that; building Perl from scratch takes quite a bit longer than using the system perl.. and if I start comparing with totally different OS versions then the tests aren't really so valid, are they?
