Actually, there are two ways to include other files using Text::Template.
Here are a couple of examples:
<H3> Included File Below</H3>
{qx{cat filename}}
and
<PRE>
{Text::Template::_load_text('.bashrc')}
</PRE>
you can make an alias in the package you use to store variables for the
template called 'include', then it just looks like:
{include('my_file')}
The man page shows how to do this.
Text::Template seems to have adequate speed in a CGI setting, but my
applications if Text::Template have been pretty small scale.
