Perhaps you can check out CGI::Simple. It loads and runs much quicker than CGI. tachyon appears to have written a nice alternative that is a drop-in replacement for CGI.pm. You can read a comparison at http://search.cpan.org/src/JFREEMAN/Cgi-Simple-0.04/cgi-simple_vs_cgi-pm.html.

Also, are you using ISAPI, or is IIS relying on the file association to load Perl? If the latter, you may wish to switch to ISAPI for improved performance, but you'll lose taint checking.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
