I've made a couple of changes to improve memory usage. I've gotten rid of the dependency on Class::Accessor::Chained::Fast, which saves about 0.5 MB RAM.
I've also changed Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu to not load HTML::FormFu::Preload. This means each hit which loads a previously unused element/constraint/etc. will have to require() the files. I think the performance hit isn't noticeable at all, and for the forms I typically use, I see around a 4 MB RAM saving for each perl interpreter. You can, of course, use() HTML::FormFu::Preload anywhere in your code if you want to still load everything up-front. Unfortunately, several other things I tried didn't give enough of an improvement to warrant making the changes (which generally made the code less clear). Every unique package (namespace) in a perl program takes up a certain amount of RAM, and there's very little I can do about that as long as the elements / constraints / etc. are module-based.
