Hmm, are you using the compiled C, or pure-perl TT stash?
Is TT caching on?

Is that 50-60% of just the action subroutine that's being hit, or of
the entire catalyst process?
What else is the action doing?
If it's only building the form, then stringifying it, I would expect
either of those to be a high percentage of the runtime.

It would be worth comparing the times for stringifying "$form" and
doing $form->render.
That should help figure out whether it's the FormFu internals, or TT.

btw, what are you using to get the requests-per-second figure?
