Catalyst comes with a pretty substantial overhead and dependency  
chain. I just launched a simple Catalyst app I'm working on that so  
far has only the default controller and no views or model, and it's  
using 30MB of RAM on my MacBook Pro (using the default Catalyst  
server, whatever it is). IIRC, mod_perl + Mason takes up around 2MB.

Oh, and Moose, though we all know that the overhead of Moose is  
actively being worked on. Can't wait.

Best,
