When I run

  perl -MTemplate::Stash::XS -e 'print "No problem\n"'

it tells me that Template::Stash::XS is present.

I dumped c.session, c.config and c.stash into a YAML file, read it using a
script and used the data to process my template. It took just 0.62 seconds,
which is way faster than when C::V::TT processes it. I actually did some
tests to verify whether it is a TT problem, but it does not occur when I
use the Template module directly. The log information and test results seem
strange, and I still cannot point my finger on a specific Perl module.
Could it be a libperl issue? My libperl5.10 version is 5.10.0-13 from
debian lenny.
