Thank you tobyink. Those are both fine examples of the information I was looking for.

(It's a shame that the metacpan site sends my browser (Opera) off into la-la land, but that's not your problem :)

For me, the most telling files are the "compiled" grammars: OwlFn & CSS.

I realise these are generated files, but damn are they ever resource hungry. It is no wonder that P::RD is so slow. Dog-forbid that either of you authors ever has to go plugging around inside there in order to solve a problem.

Have you ever had occasion to measure the performance of your parser? (Do OwlFn source files ever get big enough that it is a concern?)

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

The start of some sanity?
