A few of these things are pushing the definition of "tutorials" and are closer to "handy things to know", but I'll mention them anyway.

I'd like to see information relating to using Perl with lots of data (tens of millions of records and/or multi-Gb files).

Selfishly enough - I do and I'm having to try as I go on a lot of things :-)
I've found it quite hard to find certain bits of info, and it's something that would broadened the information in the tutorials further.

I'd also like to see a collection of bits of information that we could probably all work out for ourselves, but someone out there probably already know (and could save everyone else hours by telling us!)

I've got some experience with handling large amounts of data in Perl, but not nearly enough to write tutorials on the subject.
I'm also certain that there are loads of tips and tricks that could be learnt.
