Re: impact of compiling pod doc

[Marcel Timmerman]

Thank you for answer JJ.

It is quite a work to split such a large file up so I thought I'd better 
ask before I dive in head first. Later I might think it over. I have 
this documentation on the github pages too so I could separate the pod 
doc and keep them somewhere else where they won't get processed and 
installed.


Thanks again,
Marcel

It's going to be pretty much the same. If it's installed, it's going 
to be precompiled anyway. The overhead added by reading the file might 
even make it slower.
Of course, you can always give it a try and measure. Measuring might 
always surprise you :-)

Hi,

I was wondering if pod documentation has a large impact on compiling
modules. I assume on small files it would be ignorable but I have
some
modules which have grown big, one has 7153 lines of which the biggest
part is pod doc. Would it be useful to split such a file in two.
one for
code and the other for doc to improve the install time?

Regards,
Marcel
