The short answer for speed is to use mod_perl, if you aren't. I'm not
sure which webservers support it (apache certainly does), but it allows
perl processes to run in the webserver without having to fork, and it
has a very obvious speed improvement for cricket.
We've encountered a bug with mod_perl and running multiple cricket
installs on one webserver, so in the unlikely case that you're doing
this, you might hold off a bit.
If you want to, you can actually rewrite a lot of the layout stuff in
the Defaults file at the top of your cricket-config directory. I
haven't done much with this, but it wouldn't surprise me if you could
rearrange things so that you like them more.
