Hi Rob, Thanks for the input. Yeah, I need to dedicate a bunch of time to looking at this and paring it down to find where the problem occurs. The major headache there is that I use this system heavily every day, and I might see the issue a couple of times a month. I just haven't been able to reproduce it, despite trying to replicate the usage when I have observed it.
If the stash is just a request specific hashref then I must have reassignment/modification of one of the objects somewhere.

So, I would suggest you look at debugging more the objects you're storing in the stash, and how they may change during the request cycle. You would need to supply more code samples/examples. If you can, start stripping away what's not necessary and still be able to re-produce the problem, it will most probably highlight the issue by itself. Otherwise, reply back with a full working example. Ideally use something like http://paste.scsys.co.uk to paste your code snippets, post as much as you can, it's usually the subtle bits you don't think are important where the actual issue lies.
