in thread Unicode and locales

I think it's time for a benchmark here:

Using perl 5.8.0, on Linux (Mandrake 9.0) on a rather fast machine (Athlon dual-processor 1.8):

#!/bin/perl -w use strict; use Benchmark( 'cmpthese'); use Encode; use Text::Iconv; use Unicode::Map8; use Unicode::String qw(utf8); use utf8; my $enc= 'latin1'; my $convert_iconv = Text::Iconv->new( 'utf8', $enc); my $convert_unicode = Unicode::Map8->new ($enc); my $text= <DATA>; chomp $text; # lets just check the output! print "Encode : ", encode("iso-8859-1", $text), "\n"; print "Text::Iconv : ", $convert_iconv->convert( $text), "\n"; print "Unicode::Map8 : ", $convert_unicode->to8 (utf8($text)->ucs2), " +\n"; print "regexp : ", latin1( $text), "\n"; # now benchmark cmpthese( 500000, { 'Encode' => sub { encode("iso-8859-1", $text); + }, 'Text::Iconv' => sub { $convert_iconv->convert( $text +); }, 'Unicode::Map8' => sub { $convert_unicode->to8 (utf8($t +ext)->ucs2); }, 'regexp' => sub { latin1( $text); + }, }); sub latin1 { my $text=shift; $text=~s{([\xc0-\xc3])(.)}{ my $hi = ord($1); my $lo = ord($2); chr((($hi & 0x03) <<6) | ($lo & 0x3F)) }ge; return $text; } __DATA__ texte soupçonné d'être plein de caractÚres accentués

Results:

Encode : texte soupçonné d'être plein de caractères accentués Text::Iconv : texte soupçonné d'être plein de caractères accentués Unicode::Map8 : texte soupçonné d'être plein de caractères accentués regexp : texte soupçonné d'être plein de caractères accentués Benchmark: timing 500000 iterations of Encode, Text::Iconv, Unicode::M +ap8, regexp...

Note: I am not an expert in using Benchmark, so please let me know if my test is flawed.
