aighearach, I saw the same thing, but forgot to post
anything about it. Thank you.
I wonder about this as well. I suspected it was the profiler causing the extra overhead, but your results show it happening with just Benchmark. I have run it this way myself and found similar results. This is funny. I "preach" to co-workers to forget their 'C' days, and ignore performance. "Perl is about programmer efficiency, not CPU efficiency," I say. Now, I am fascinated with this discussion, which is all about esoteric trivia of Perl efficiency. :-) Russ
