Networking http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5/qtnetwork.html and a lot of other stuff reducing the c++-code you've to write.

Every QT call is feeded with QT Objects. So if you use it with another language there is a lot conversion work by the binding code. And if using from perl you've the interpreter running which eats your battery before lunch

Yeah, sorry. I second the FUD. We're talkin' asynchronous, event-driven UI apps here. We're not drilling for oil. And all the heavy lifting is being done in the C/C++ shared libraries. I have 3 Python apps "running" 24/7, and although they suck memory, they don't suck CPU or battery.
