Obviously there's something funky going on with my particular machine.
Luckily using Tie::Array::Packed is not mission critical - although it looks like a sweet technique when running through humongous arrays. But it's a little scary to realize that a script that runs for five hours before completing its task, or an array with 20,000+ items in it, are not abnormal.
