in thread use and performance

Are you talking about this kind of usage?

use Class::Struct CLASS_NAME => [ ELEMENT_NAME => ELEMENT_TYPE, ... ];
You can't skip that call to import, or your struct class would not get created.

Anyway, if you don't want to import anything you can just call use with an empty list. This is common in mod_perl:

use CGI ();
