Good that it uses zip but it doesn't look like there is a way to make

Whether I use perl -MPAR or parl it always unpacks to the TEMP
folder. Is there anyway to prevent decompression to TEMP?
No.
perl -MPAR=foo.par ...
will only uncompress Perl code on demand. Shared libraries are (IIRC)
always extracted That's as good as it'll get because you cannot portably
load shared libraries from memory.
There is a branch that loads pure-Perl modules from memory, but that
cannot work in the general case. Sometimes, it even violates user
expectations.
