I can't see the difference between "internal" scripts (i.e. packed
into the executable)
and "external" scripts here. The main cost is in both cases:
- executing the bootstrap program, i.e. the executable generated by pp
(which notices that the bootstrap stuff is already extracted)
- executing the already unpacked special purpose perl interpreter
- require'ing PAR::Packer and dependent modules
- finally running your script (whether it's below $ENV{PAR_TEMP} or
somewhere else)
The only way to save here is getting rid of the first exec (the unpacked special
purpose perl interpreter is actually $ENV{PAR_TEMP}/{basename of pp
generated executable}).
But that would mean to duplicate the setup (mostly environment stuff
and argument
preprocessing) currently done by boot.
