It sounds to me like you're trading HT's disk (and/or memory caching) for your 
own memory caching (if you're using mod_perl and keep the HT object 
instantiated, and let the "if" be processed with each output so it outputs the 
correct page for the request).

What benefit do you get from having different pages in one template and using 
an "if" to output the correct one? Why not keep them in seperate templates and 
load them as needed (using HT's caching)?
