I forgot (for the sake of future reference): this comparison is between Perl 5.8.8 and Parrot 0.49. The perl is from the Slackware package, ie a stock compile without patches, configured non-threaded and with conservative optimisation, but no other chanegs to the defaults. Parrot is a stock compile configured with optimisations but no other changes to the defaults. Regards, -- Aristotle Pagaltzis // <http://plasmasturm.org/>
