Presumably you've looked at perldoc perlcc.

If you are talking about compiling to an executable, you basically have
a copy of perl with the bytecode of your program translated into
equivalent calls into the perl API.

If you are wanting something to speed up your programs or to hide your
code, you're not going to be happy.  Come to think of it if you're
wanting your Perl programs to run properly you're probably not going to
be happy either.  perlcc is still experimental and buggy.  It's not
providing the benefits that were hoped for, and at the moment no one has
really stepped up to champion its further development.
