I am mostly suggesting Perl vs. Perl cmpthese benchmarks, which tell you how one WTDI performs compares to another, usually regardless of what platform you are running on.
The idea is that for most common tasks, operations, algorithms, etc., we will have a vast and open body of organized knowledge that usually provides:
- A fast WTDI
- An elegant and perlish WTDI
- An obvious WTDI
- A contorted and masochist WTDI
- A just plain wrong WTDI
Of course, these are not always mutually exclusive :)

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
