I am curious what is your tech setup? Running on the dedicated server or cloud, which programming languages and libraries are you using?

I am running on python and AWS Lambda. Works really smooth battle tested it with 100 pdf pages and 400 fields to be merged and the Pdf is generated within 2 seconds. And I am currently using one of the lowest resource settings on AWS Lambda.

I am mostly using pikepdf and the a lot of secret sauce added ;)

I am not OP but pdftk is one of the best libraries I found for this. You can package the binary and run it on a server somewhere.
