Doesn't Text::CSV choose either Text::CSV_XS or Text::CSV_PP depending on what is available on your system? I definitely remember you saying so at YAPC::EU 2008 in Copenhagen.

BTW, are the slides of that presentation somewhere available? I use Text::CSV quite a lot and every ounce of speed I can wring out of it helps.

Correct, but if you only install Text::CSV, it doesn't automatically install Text::CSV_XS, so you don't get the speed, so I keep promotong the latter

Talk is here. Opera browser might be required, as it depends on <link rel="next" type="text/html" href="..." /> in the <head> section, which Opera supports with FastForward. To skip directly to the first slide, click here.
