Running your code on my Linux box, I get:
qwurx [shmem] ~> perl 574821.pl 6000 7000 10000
Array size: 10000
Inserting: 6000 .. 7000
Rate splicing radiant
splicing 46.8/s -- -66%
radiant 137/s 193% --
You are inserting a number between 6000 and 7000 at index 1, in every call to insert1 and insert2.
# called as insert1( \@ary, 1, $_ ) for $START .. $END
sub insert1 {
my ( $ra, $index, $elem ) = @_;
@$ra = @$ra[0 .. $index-1], $elem, @$ra[$index .. @$ra-1];
}
# I tested with
sub insert1 {
my ( $ra, $elem, $index ) = @_;
@$ra = @$ra[0 .. $index-1], $elem, @$ra[$index .. @$ra-1];
}
# called as insert1( \@ary, 1, $_ ) for $START .. $END
If I swap $elem and $index (i.e. insert 1 at an index from $START to $END) I get:
qwurx [shmem] ~> perl 574821.pl 600 700 1000
Array size: 1000
Inserting: 600 .. 700
Rate radiant splicing
radiant 30.5/s -- -98%
splicing 1672/s 5377% --
The insert somewhere in the middle is more expensive, that's why $_/10 for @params here.
My perl:
$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i586-linux-thread-multi
...
--shmem
_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo. G°\ /

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).
