This is an important point, and it's the main reason I've never actually used HTML::Template::JIT. My ego demanded that I create the fastest templating system possible, but that doesn't mean it's actually needed. Performance optimization should be about addressing bottlenecks and it's a pretty rare web-app that actually has a templating bottleneck. Similarly, I still use CGI.pm all the time. Despite all kinds of evidence about how "slow" it is, it's never shown up on a single profile run I've ever done. Now my ego is telling me to disect HTML::Template::Compiled and figure out how it manages to beat HTML::Template::JIT in some tests. Help! -sam
