And so you should be :) Here are the benchmarks...

japhy can be excused since he was golfing. I haven't got much of an excuse though!

I also amended a couple of them to work with @_ correctly :)

cLive ;-)

ps - here's the code I ran. Let me know if I did it wrong (I'm no Benchmark expert):

Update: Here's another rough benchmark using just one string that's about 5 times longer than the longest I used in the original Benchmark:

Update 2: Ack, nice one BroswerUK (in reply below). Mine fails on the "wrapped string palindrome" too. I think we may need a new thread on this when the test cases are updated.
