I am running DB queries for each of those parameters

Somehow I doubt that each of these parameters correspond to columns in different tables. Most likely, you'll only need to update one or two tables for each submit in most circumstances. So instead of updating the database for each parameter¹, you could do one or two mass updates²

# 1

# (I don't know which module you're using for your $query->Dump expres
+sion,
#  so I'll simply be using the old school CGI.pm here)

use CGI 'param';
use DBI;
my $dbh = DBI->connect(...) or die ...;
my $id = param 'id';

# Hit the database with an UPDATE for every parameter
for my $p (param) {
    next if $p eq 'id';
    my $sql = sprintf("UPDATE mytable SET %s = ? WHERE id = ?", $p)
    $dbh->do($sql, undef, param($p), $id);
}

# 2

# (again, just CGI.pm)

use CGI 'param';
use DBI;
my $dbh = DBI->connect(...) or die ...;

my $id = param 'id';
my %update = map { $_ ne 'id' ? ($_ => param($_)) : () } param;
my @bind = ();
# First, build one large UDPATE statement
# and collect the bind values while we're at it
my $sql = "UPDATE mytable SET " .            # Doing this from the top
+ of my head,
          join(", ",                         # untested, but it should
+ get the 
            grep defined, map {              # idea across
                if ($_ ne 'id') {
                    push @bind, param($_);
                    sprintf "%s = ?", $_
                }
                else { undef }
            } param
          )
;

# And then hit the database with that UPDATE statement just once.
$dbh->do($sql, undef, bind);
