Yes they were :) But I'm not sure I like the results.
Is there a problem with this benchmarking code?
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use Benchmark;
my $file = $0;
open IN, $file or die "$file: $!\n";
sub joinit { my $content = join '', <IN>; }
sub dollarslash { my $content = do { local $/; <IN> } }
timethese(100_000, {join => \&joinit,
slash => \&dollarslash} );
because it implies that the join is faster...
Benchmark: timing 100000 iterations of join, slash...
join: 2 wallclock secs ( 1.52 usr + 0.29 sys = 1.81 CPU)
slash: 4 wallclock secs ( 2.99 usr + 0.35 sys = 3.34 CPU)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
