I can reproduce this here.

This is because Embperl has to compute several parts of the table, just 
to see that the array has ended (value is undef) and throw it away.

I have changed your code to:

  <table border=0  bgcolor="fffffc" >
    <tr bgcolor="E0D8CD">
      <td nowrap >[+ $head[$col] +]</td>
    </tr>
    <tr bgcolor="D9CFBF">
     <td nowrap>[+ $subhead[$col] +]</td>
    </tr>

[$foreach $data (@main_data) $]
  [* if($bgcolor eq
  "#EBE4DA"){$bgcolor="#DED6CB";}else{$bgcolor="#EBE4DA";} *]
    <tr bgcolor=[+ $bgcolor +]>
      [- $i = 0 -]
      [$ foreach $cdata (@$data) $]
      <td nowrap [+ $td_attr[$i++ ] +]>[+ $cdata +]</td>
      [$endforeach$]
    </tr>
[$endforeach$]
  </table>

This has only a factor of 3 instead of 4 when doubling the number of 
rows. This is also not perfect, but at least better than before.

The optimizations Embperl uses to speed things up reverses itself for 
such huge tables :-(
