No real gotchas. I prefer Moo to Mouse/Moose. I think the defaults are better and things like inline “type” checking more Perlish; more self-documenting; easier to remember.

Mouse is much faster than the other meta-OO options. So, if this were my project the choice between Moo and Mouse would boil down to the execution. If the app is persistently executed, I’d pick Moo, otherwise, Mouse. If it’s persistent then you should be looking at running/harnessing it as PSGI too, whether or not the base code is in CGI.

…Then again, some casual tests on the command line suggest the start-up speed of Moo is only 0.001s slower than Mouse so maybe Moo anyway depending on how many objects and how much access you’re wrangling. I have also had far fewer cross compat/build/deps problems with Moo than Mouse or Moose, FWIW; in a very static env this shouldn’t matter though.
