I suspect you had one of the following problems: - Incorrectly configured template caching - Heavy use of method calls in your template - Use of a plugin that fetches data (e.g. DBI queries or a Class::DBI object) - Programming logic in the template that belongs in the perl code instead - Heavy use of INCLUDE rather than PROCESS I often see people make one or more of these mistakes (which are not possible to make with HTML::Template) and conclude that TT is slow. - Perrin
