I rewrote a similar system a while ago. it runs in plain CGI mode and serves internal clients
only.
I used Template-Toolkit instead of H::T though. the system parses csv file and display result in
html to user. when dealing with big file (30M-40M), the bottleneck is on TT's html generation
step.

we also provide .csv( and .xls which converted on the fly) formats for user to download so user
can d/l the .csv and open it up directly if the file is too big to be displayed in html.

if we are going to fix it, i will choose to do either 1) pagination or 2) a cron job generates the
reports every night.
